When Lully discovered him, he was a cook, and when he made his debut in 1677, everyone admired his acting and the power of his voice, and was amazed at his ear for absorbing and refining all of the music.

This is the first of a trilogy of albums celebrating the haute-contre of Lully, Rameau, and Gluck, and includes lively performances of works by Marais, Charpentier, and others from Dumenyi's brilliant career.
