Evgeni Finkelstein plays 'La Couperin' (Noblem et Marque) from Suite No.1 in D minor by Antoine Forqueray (1672–1745)

Antoine Forqueray was a French composer and virtuoso of the viola da gamba. Forqueray's exceptional talents as a player led to his performing before Louis XIV at the age of ten. The king was so pleased with him that he arranged for Forqueray to have music lessons at his own expense and then, seven years later, in 1689, named him musicien ordinaire of La chambre du Roy, a position Forqueray held until the end of his life.

Evgeni Finkelstein is an outstanding Russian master of classical guitar. His playing is marked by wonderful sound, extraordinary fineness and intense musical expression.
