the complete music for organ and harpsichord-Louis-Nicolas Clérambault is primarily known for his vocal compositions and that he was a master in such genres becomes clear for those performing either his harpsichord or organ pieces. In comparison with his other publications Clérambault s keyboard music is somewhat meagre but demonstrates a vocal composer s infinite attention to detail and a rhetorical plan that that sets it apart from other composers of the Grand siècle.
