About Duo Maresienne

From the intricate Italian and English fantasies of the 15th and 16th centuries to the most spectacular French and German showpieces of the 18th century, Duo Maresienne treats its audiences to a variety of music for some fascinating and elegant instruments—the lute, theorbo, viola da gamba, and early guitars. Named for the great French Baroque composer and gambist Marin Marais, Duo Maresienne explores the musical spirit of Renaissance and Baroque Europe. Carol Lewis and Olav Chris Henriksen appear individually and together and performing with internationally acclaimed ensembles, including Boston Camerata and Hespèrion. Lewis and Henriksen have recorded on Astrée, EMI, Harmonia Mundi, Nonesuch, Erato, Centaur, Decca, Telarc, and Koch International, among others. New England composer Daniel Pinkham wrote his “Sagas” (1998) for Duo Maresienne.
