My word of the day:

roccoco composers


Context:

Interest in Couperin is significantly lower in the Netherlands than elsewhere and if it is interested in a Couperin then it is for his uncle Louis Couperin. The highly sensual of François Couperin's music, with a sense of humor and not entirely focused on strict contemplation, makes that the kind of compositions Couperin wrote - and those of many of his French contemporaries and later baroque and roccoco composers - by Dutch Baroque music lovers, too quickly and easily, are dismissed as wuft and/or superficial.
