ERLEBACH, , Sonata sesta in F Major: IV. Sarabande by LAchéron François Joubert Caillet

In 1694 Philipp Heinrich Erlebach, kapellmeister at the court of Count SchwarzburgRudolstadt, published a collection of trio sonatas for a typical German ensemble of the period: violin, viola da gamba, and bass continuo. Pairing the violin with the viola da gamba seems to exemplify the fusion of Italian and French musical traditions, and this same fusion is found in the forms of these compositions, with an Italianate sonata followed by a suite of French dances a model that Johann Sebastian Bach would later recall. These sonatasuites are endowed with undeniable charm and an infectious liveliness, and François JoubertCaillet, with his ensemble LAchéron, give us a particularly seductive interpretation of them.
