Seven Sonatas for Violin and Continuo attributed to Denis Delair, performed by Marguerite Wassermann, violin, Josef Laming, harpsichord and The Levée: world première recording released by warblingQUIRE Records on 25 April 2025 (WQ2501), in partnership with Ulysses Arts.

Denis Delair is known today as a theorist and the author of the Traité d’Acompagnement pour le Theorbe, et le Clavessin, first published in 1690. Despite mention of his instrumental compositions in the 1724 edition of his treatise, Delair’s compositions have - until now - fallen into obscurity.

In looking through the catalogue of the Düben Collection, a Swedish musical manuscript collection started in the 1640s, members of The Levée came across seven ‘Sonates à Violino seul’ by a ‘Mr De L’air’. When we began studying these sonatas, we were captivated by Delair’s unique style of composition: the rich harmonies, his rhetorical, vocal writing for instruments, the heavy chromaticism and surprising modulations.

These sonatas are an excellent counterpart to Delair’s theoretical writing: they are the perfect vehicle for the application of ideas from the treatise, and they feature examples of the harmonies that Delair mentions in his chapter on ‘Acompagnemens [sic] extraordinaires’.

The Levée:
Marguerite Wassermann, baroque violin
Martin Jantzen, viola da gamba
Niels Pfeffer, theorbo
Josef Laming, harpsichord
Guest:
Elise Dupont, baroque violin
