12 suites for viola da gamba & bc (The Hague 1686). Hacquart, whose works are distinguished by a polyphonic structure with chords and large leaps, numbers among the great viol composers of the seventeenth century. Born around 1640 in Bruges, Carolus Hacquart was active, together with his brother Philip, in Amsterdam. During his lifetime he was considered one of the Netherlands’ most important composers.
