Marin Marais (1656 1728) was a French composer and viol player at the royal court of Versailles. His most famous works are his five books of Pièces de Viole, from which these pieces are taken.
The Five Old French Dances were first presented as a single edition in the early twentieth century, arranged for viola and piano by Maud E Aldis and Louis T Rowe.
The pieces in the set are L'Agréable, La Provençale, La Musette, La Matelotte, and Le Basque.
