The pairing here of Giovanni De Macque (1548-1614) and Giovanni Salvatore (1620-1688) is not really explained, although the role of each in Neapolitan & Italian keyboard music is discussed. There is no discussion of the instrument used here, a frustrating situation.

This is to be the first in a series of 17th century Italian keyboard recitals by Michèle Dévérité for Arion.
