Best known today as a composer of harpsichord music, Couperin remained deeply involved in chamber music. His four inventive trio sonatas and suites entitled Les Nations allege to explore the different musical styles of France and Italy. In fact, each nation's sonata is more likely Corellian and they're all flavoured by a free-form

virtuosity and elaborate French dance suite. Probably inspired by Corelli's pages, whose Trio Sonata Books appeared in the 1680s, Couperin first composed 'La Pucelle', 'La Visionnaire' and 'L'Astrée'. They are subsequently entitled 'La Françoise', 'L'Espagnole', 'L'Impériale' and 'La Piémontoise'. Despite these solemn titles, Les Nations are nimbled by a mysterious charm because French and Italian styles mingle. As a crowning final of Couperin's anniversary year, Christophe Rousset and his Talens Lyriques deliver a long-matured version ofLes Nations: pure beauty and grace.
