Henri Joseph Taskin, Opus 6, Fantaisie sur l’Air ‘’Partant pour la Syrie’’

[@helenpanshin5589]

Thank you very much for the skillfully realized recording, which is so far the only one of this piece that I've come across, and for all of the contextual information! (and please forgive me for the comment in English). You will know that musicologist Jerome Dorival attributed this piece to Pascal Joseph Taskin II in his Editions Modulation edition, so I was pleasantly surprised to come across this recording with the differing attribution attached - of course, the original title page at 4:30 is somewhat ambiguous, and I find the "Catalogue of musical works composed by H. J. Taskin" that you include at 3:00 is convincing regarding the attribution of this piece.

Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire positif et bienveillant. Oui, cette pièce est manifestement l'opus 6 de Henri Joseph Taskin, professeur et compositeur de musique, et non pas de son père, facteur de clavecins renommé par ailleurs.

Thank you so much for your positive and kind comment. Yes, this piece is clearly opus 6 by Henri Joseph Taskin, music teacher and composer, and not by his father, a renowned harpsichord maker.
