Une Symphonie Imaginaire is Minkowskis own collection of 17 orchestral pieces from 11 of Rameaus operas, compiled into a dramatic cycle that represents both the world of French Baroque dance music and the origins of French symphonic music. What emerges is a programme that is as dramatic as it is delightful and easily accessible! With this recording the musical universe of Rameau is captured in an entirely new programme concept by one of the most popular interpreters of French Baroque music.

Minkowskis earlier recordings of music by Rameau, also with his Musiciens du Louvre, have received numerous critics prizes including two Diapasons dor and the Record Academy Prize of Tokyo.

"There was no puzzling, religious world-view to get in the way of a suite of Rameau's most delectable dances compiled by Minkowski. Here you could just enjoy the parade of colours and rhythms, played with amazing vividness and sparkling virtuosity." - Daily Telegraph (London), 2003
