opis
Nakład wyprzedany, ostatni egzemplarzThis diary entry of Madame de Sévigné shows the enormous role of dance at the court of the Sun King, which the film "The King dances" also presented to today's audience in magnificent pictures. The exact reconstruction of the historical dances for the film was made possible by a book from which Andrew Lawrence-King makes music on the present CD: Raoul-Auger Feuillet's Chorégraphy, published in 1700. •
Louis XIV's passion for ballet and dance determined the evening entertainment three times a week: at six o'clock in the evening, courtly society went to the king's chambers, where violins played for dancing in one of the rooms, as Liselotte of the Palatinate, Louis's sister-in-law, reports. Beyond the king's dancing pleasure, the ballet played an important political role at the court of Versailles. With his great operas and ballets, Jean-Baptiste Lully created the framework for the self-portrayal of the Sun King as the centre of French society. In the ballets, Louis XIV himself often appeared in the role of Apollo or the Sun as a fixed star around which all other planets orbit. •
We are unusually well informed about the choreography of these ballets, as there are precise choreographic records that go beyond descriptions of these events: For his book Chorégraphie, published in 1700, Raoul-Auger Feuillet developed his own "notation" in which the movements of the dance could be defined more precisely than any description in words. The dance paths of the individual dancers are indicated in space-filling lines by sweeping geometric figures that are oriented towards the "Présence", i.e. the audience in the opera or the king and his noble company. Along these lines, the movement of the feet is notated in "letters", and the musical time is indicated by bar lines that correspond to the melody written above them. Signs for the conventional steps, such as pas de bourrée or contretemps de gavotte, and separate symbols for simple and combined jumps, the pas battus (the folding of the legs in the air) or the transformation of musical ornamentation into a decorative gesture, as well as all the other movements of ballet dance at that time, make Feuillet's book a unique source for posterity on the rules of baroque dance. Thus, today's artists can reconstruct these ballets and show the audience what Soame Jenyns expressed back then with a two-liner: "Art and music must unite in such a way / that notes seem to echo like feet".
