Here’s the review by Philip Hensher of the British Daily Telegraph newspaper, August 31 1996:
A very eccentric, but weirdly appealing disc from Erato of French 18th-century hunting music kicks off with the shrieking racket of five hunting horns in Jean-Baptiste Morin’s divertissement La Chasse du Cerf. Apart from the fascinating, uncontrollable noise of the horn, this cantata is terribly refined and charming; the pleasure comes from the almost comic way a sweet little soprano aria is interrupted, every 20 seconds, by a horrid din, like a rhinoceros falling through the ceiling. It takes some doing to listen to the whole disc, and by the time you reach Jean-Joseph Mouret’s Symphonies de Chasse, the noise of these unwieldy instruments attempting to manoeuvre round a gavotte is enough to bring out the saboteur in anyone.
It is played with considerable energy and elegance by the modestly titled Orchestre de Chambre Jean-Francois Paillard
Michel Corrett’s La Choisy – his 14th "Concerto comique" – uses more orthodox horns with great charm in a piece written for performance in a fairground; and the disc is rounded off with the relatively familiar music of the hunting scene from Rameau’s Hippolyte et Aricie. It is played with considerable energy and elegance by the modestly titled Orchestre de Chambre Jean-Francois Paillard, conducted by the great Jean-Francois Paillard himself; marred by some woolly choral singing and a rather unattractive noise from Christina Eda-Pierre. Nevertheless, to be recommended to anyone in search of something well out of the ordinary, or simply looking for a record to speed departing guests on their way.
