About this concert
Denis Gaultier was descended from an illustrious line of lutenists that in seventeenth-century Paris counted even the king among its admirers. La Rhétorique des dieux is a collection of suites dedicated to the Greek modes. Michal Gondko takes a closer look at this crown jewel of Parisian lute literature and presents the finest examples of rhetoric on strings.
