5.0 out of 5 stars Jerome Hantai is a ... master of his instrument, January 30, 2006

A new selection, by Jerome Hantai, of works from Marin Marais' 5 volumes of Pieces de viole, published between 1686 and 1725. For this second collection, Hantai has grouped pieces from Books 2 to 4 into four loosely defined `suites'. "Jerome Hantai is a wonderful gambist... his fast passages are clean and fiery... rest assured that this disc is played by a master of his instrument." (THE AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE)
