This inspiring program is worthy to join the outstanding Scheidemann recordings by Rassam and Dirksen (see M/J 2018). Most of Moulin’s seven Scheidemann pieces were not recorded by either of them. Scheidt’s music (32 minutes here) is in a similar style—both of these composers were students of Sweelinck. Some of the popular tunes here will be familiar if you know the contemporary settings by English composers. Moulin captures the different expressive characters of the pieces well, playing with fluency and imagination. He understands the rare art of guiding a listener subtly through several layers of a composi-tion simultaneously. His single-manual harpsichord has beautiful tone and perfect intonation (in meantone). The booklet says this album launches Ricercar’s new series of 17th Century German harpsichord repertoire. Bravo!
