    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    As chief court musician to Louis XIV and Louis XV, Michel-Richard de Lalande is chiefly remembered for his sumptuous orchestral motets and much attractive instrumental music. In this thematic catalogue of his music, Lionel Sawkins illustrates the composer's music with over 3,000 music examples, details of performing requirements and of all source materials, as well as with comprehensive indexes and thematic locators.

    Long description:

    For 43 years (1683-1726), Lalande's music occupied a central position at the courts of Louis XIV and Louis XV, where his grands motets and instrumental suites set a style admired then and long after, both in the royal chapel and at the Paris Concert spirituel. Recent festivals at Versailles, as well as many editions, performances and recordings worldwide, underline the importance of Lalande as an undisputed master of the French Baroque. With over 3,000 music
    examples, details of performing requirements and of all source materials, as well as with comprehensive indexes and thematic locators, this Thematic Catalogue makes Lalande's compositions fully accessible to musicians, musicologists, and music lovers.

    Lionel Sawkin's long-awaited Thematic Catalogue of the Works of Michel-Richard de Lalande is the product of a life's work spent in European and North American libraries, and is probably one of the most important contributions to the study of French baroque music in recent decades.
