Suite for Descant (Soprano) Recorder and B.C.

This edition presents a suite for soprano recorder and basso continuo compiled from the Symphonies pour les soupers du Roy (Symphonies for the King's Suppers) by Michel-Richard Delalande. It enables you to learn the pieces systematically and at three different tempi with professional accompaniments. The recordings begin with the concert version of each piece, following which you will hear the harpsichord accompaniment at slow and medium tempo to help you practise. Having mastered these slower versions, you'll now be ready to play with continuo accompaniment at the original tempo. All of the versions were recorded live.
