Following the first two volumes of the pioneering new edition, Barenreiter now presents Couperin's "Troisieme livre" of the "Pieces de clavecin" (1722) edited by Denis Herlin. In addition to the six "Ordres", the edition also contains the four "Concerts royaux". For this new Urtext edition, for the first time, Herlin has evaluated the many reprints of the original edition, most of which he unearthed himself in international libraries. All variants are meticulously recorded in the Critical Commentary (Eng).
