(5 out of 5 stars)

"For fans of chamber music, classical guitar and/or lute music, this album should definitely be in your collection.The Air de Cour -- literally "courtly airs" -- was a 17th century vocal artform popular throughout France. The songs here are distinct, catchy, and above all fun to listen to. Marie Claude Vallin and Max Van Egmond do every justice to this little-known style of singing. And fans of lute music will appreciate Lutz Kirchhoff's master touch on the accompaniment and various dance pieces that give added continuity to this album. For any early music fan who has not had the pleasure of listening to the music of Pierre Guedron or Robert Ballard, this album might be a prime introduction to their outstanding compositions. The lute music of Robert Ballard has also been performed on several other Renaissance/Baroque albums available through Amazon.com."
