?Musettes, hurdy-gurdies, and flutes formed the dream countryside of Rococo-style salons, that of Watteau's painting Concert Champêtre (1727), when Naudot's Fantaisies were enjoying their hour of glory. The fashion for "pastoralism" was in full swing, and professional musicians as well as great amateurs vied with each other in "pastoral" concertos where musettes and hurdy-gurdies featured heavily. These instruments were popular originally, garnering great skill to rise to the heights of virtuoso: enough to enchant Louis XV's courtesans and those close to La Pompadour! Alexis Kossenko reveals these wonderfully outdated gems to us as a bold shepherd.
