John Jenkins (1592-1678) - Fantazia - Ensemble Jérôme Hantaï








































Opgenomen in de Duits-Evangelische Kerk te Parijs, april 2004
Afbeelding: Paolo Uccello (1397-1475)


- Jenkins was an uniquely important 17th Century master. So influential was he that when Henry Purcell was growing to maturity he was described as "the Jenkins of his age".
We have to look to the Fantasias of the younger generation of Thomas Lupo and Christopher Gibbons for anything like the flexibility of Jenkins' melody. William Lawes, killed tragically young at the siege of Chester in 1645, added adventurous instrumental gesture to idiosyncratic harmony foreshadowing the works of Locke and Purcell. Jenkins, on the other hand, produced a lyrical music, equally original, which, even at its most intense, is always smooth in outline and almost without unprepared dissonance. He is however the most modern of them all in his use of the still developing diatonic system and confident in the handling of of adventurous modulation. Carolyn Coxon in boekje

...the sound of the recording, made in the German Evangelical Church in Paris, is top-notch. - James Manheim, AMG

I heard his music performed by the Rose Consort of Viols and it was fantastic. I hope this is as good.
