Virgin Veritas has a contract with the Centre de Musique Baroque de
Versailles to release the recordings they had made with Fnac Musique --
there are 18 CDs of French Baroque music in Fnac's "Musique a Versailles"
recording project.

On the other hand, with regard to the Lully Grands Motets, it appears that
Naxos is re-issuing these with a limited French distribution. For example,

Grands motets vol. 2: Gens Fouchecourt Lamy Harvey - Le Concert Spirituel -
H. Niquet; Naxos 8.554 398F

Grands motets vo. 3: Desrocher Fouchecourt Harvey - Le Concert Spirituel -
H. Niquet; Naxos 8.554 399F
