Fun Fact: Sarabande dance that originated in Central America back in the sixteenth century. It became popular in the Spanish colonies before making its way to Europe. At first, it was regarded as being rather scandalous, even being banned in Spain for its obscenity. With this radical attitude of being super conservative what do you think they would say about our innovative modern twerk dance? Its evolved and came a long ways.

[@DaviSilva-oc7iv]

The sarabande which you see in this video is the aristocratic version, which is more refined and stripped of the scandalous aspects which caused so much controversy when it originated in Latin America and was then imported to Spain. The original dance was rowdy and fast-paced, not suited to the taste of the elites.

Thank you, Peter. I don't know his work, but will look him up. The dance and the music are glorious.Best wishes.

Absolutely beautiful!

[@robcat2075]

Damn these things are elaborate. I suppose it would have been quite the social faux pas to get the steps wrong.

[@adamnoman4658]

Yes, indeed. In an age of absolutism, even dance had to be politically, as well as socially, correct.

[@danawinsor1380]

Very astute statement. People of the nobility or upper economic class took a dancing lesson every day. You really had to due to the complexity of the dances, as you suggested. Furthermore, it was common for a dance to be performed by a couple, rather than a group, with the rest of the people looking on. So it really was a performance.

este tipo de danza era considerado asqueroso y vulgar en sus inicios

[@al_gc1703]

Well, that makes sense while listening Baroque music.

[@nunyabiznes33]

True. I keep seeing titles like "bouree" or "sarabande" etc and wondering wth were the composers alluding to. Turns out they were composing for dances. 😅

It staggers the imagination that an elegant dance like this could be banned for being "indecent". A tango or anything that takes place in a club in this century are much more threatening.

[@adamnoman4658]

It was not this late 17th-century sarabande that had a reputation of indecency, but rather its ancestral zarabanda that is believed to have been imported into Spain from the New World a century or more earlier. The French, of course, sublimated the original display of primitive lust into the presentation of civilized seduction, which is well expressed by the gentleman here. We can credit the Russians Stravinsky and Diaghilev with re-introducing the more, shall we say, earthy impulses into Western theatrical dance at the beginning of the last century. The rest is history.

That's a very good explanation about european music history. Thank you for the post!

[@j8577798yt]

@@PeterHoffmannBarocktanz well, compering this specific clip to others I've seen, the dance is way less elegant and is "all over the place" and even at times looks uncoordinated. For a start.

[@isaacvandermerwe744]

1:13 the musicians mess up, perhaps? Out of place major 3rd in subdominant approach chord, methinks.

[@milstarac432]

Mr. Merve, l can't be 100% sure, but l don't think it's a mistake.. Early european music can often surprise with a little bit unorthodox melody line, not strictly fitting into (what later became) major-minor system. This music is from (roughly) 150 or more years before Bach, Handel, etc. Personally, l find that point you mentioned - fresh and charming!

Peter Hoffmann Danke... Dieser Raum ähnelt sehr dem Festsaal im Schloss Charlottenburg in Berlin, welches ich diese Sommerferien besichtigt habe. Ich bin wirklich sehr fasziniert von Schlössern😊

[@rivercarroll1917]

Why was this considered a controversial dance?

[@ignaziosulis9754]

It is clear that today this dance form, performed by a couple who does not touch each other with a finger, really makes you smile. That idea of a scandalous dance, which was once attributed to it, was part of the common thought of that time. If you think about the same attitudes of male birds courting females with similar movements, there is nothing scandalous! But the sensitivity and human hypocrisy of that historical moment was more careful not to arouse public scandal, but it was also very hypocritical at the same time, when instead, the courtship between "animal" couples was and is a purely natural fact. However, if we talk about simple courtship, your question is normal, unless it is a question of couples who exhibit attitudes of explicit sex. Ironically, if those ancient people could have seen today's modern dances, I think they would have shivered.

Which version of the dance is this? Is this English, Italian, German or French? Thanks. This seems to me to be moderately slow.
