The title track, Le Petit Mort, translates as âThe Little Death,â a French phrase meaning âorgasm.â This long lost work is attributed to one of the first, great female composers, Elisabeth-Claude Jacquet de la Guerre. The legend goes that before her husband passed away in 1704, she wrote this work as a gift for her secret lover who longed for her while her husband was still alive, but dared not reveal himself. This piece was a secret message to her lover that if he waited, he would experience âLe Petit Mort.â
