Catalogue Note
Avec Jean-Baptiste Morin, Bernier est le pionnier de la cantate française séculaire. Ses sept volumes de cantates sont publiés entre 1703 et 1723. Le premier volume, contenu dans le présent ouvrage, est remarquable pour le brillant équilibre atteint entre les styles français et italien.
