From "Pièces de clavecin", Vol. 2, Ordre No. 6. Composed by Francois Couperin. Edited by Wilhelm Ohmen. This edition: Sheet music. Edition Schott - Single Edition. Copyright 2012 Schott Music GmbH & Co. KG, Mainz. Score. Schott Music - Digital #Q21292. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q21292).

Alongside Chambonnières and Rameau, François Couperin was a leading French composer and harpsichordist of his time. 'Pièces de clavecin' is his best known composition, consisting of 27 suites called 'Ordres'. 'Les Barricades mystérieuses' is a rondo with three episodes or verses between which alternates the constantly recurring refrain. Instead of a melody, one can hear powerful, continuously broken syncopated harmonies. This kind of setting is reminiscent of the style of French lute music with a majestic character, yet without being ponderous. This relatively easy piece features only a few simple ornaments and is therefore particularly suitable for interpretations on the modern piano.

Cette forme de composition rappelle le style de la musique française de luth, au caractère majestueux sans être pesant. La pièce, plutôt facile, se contente de peu d’ornements simples et se prête ainsi particulièrement à l'interprétation au piano moderne.
