In 1700, Corelli published his 12 violin sonatas, op. 5, in Rome. They are a true revolution in violin technique, which attracted the admiration of important composers (Bach, Dandrieu, Couperin) and strongly influenced the French (Francœur, Leclair, Senaillé, Quentin), who were also to try their hand at this virtuoso and brilliant Italian style. At the end of the 1730s, the first six sonatas of Opus 5 were “adapted to the transverse flute with bass” by a Parisian publisher. The degree of virtuosity they demanded was quite innovative for the time. This virtuosity can also be found in the compositions of Jean-Baptiste Quentin, known as Le Jeune. Little biographical information is available about Quentin himself, but his entire oeuvre is inspired by Italian music and strongly influenced by Corelli. Anna Besson has produced the world’s first recording of his sonatas, supported by two other outstanding performers of the new Baroque generation, Myriam Rignol on the viola da gamba and Jean Rondeau on the harpsichord ..
