About

Blue: the colour of the star-lit sky; the colour of Urania, the muse who holds the world in her hand. In Madame de Rambouillet's Salon bleu, the "Précieuses" converse with one another in an elegant setting regardless of frontiers, with all the refinement of 17th-century style.

Two lady musicians recreate the colours of these graceful "Précieuses": take your comfort in tones which, like words, dress up truth in light blue satin veils. Featuring music by Robert de Visée, Sébastien le Camus, Michel Lambert and Marc-Antoine Charpentier, soprano Deborah Cachet and theorbo player Sofie Vanden Eynde transport us back in time to the 17th century.
