[@rebeccae.5217]

Beautiful! And so deliciously French & calming. Love the singing & stage presence of Paul Agnew and Cyril Auvity.

[@katbullar]

Fantastic and mesmerizing!

[@ProkofievAMD]

Un morceau sacré de baroque français. Suprême élégance !

[@thalilie]

Mais quelle merveille !!! un moment de grâce intemporelle

[@jdautz]

Il s'est passé un truc magique, tous les chanteurs ont une délicatesse sublime. Un beau moment de musique.

[@somethinggtwo]

my God that was beautiful...I didn't take my eyes off it for even a second

[@oduwanchik3450]

OMG! ... so beautiful!!! Thanks

[@agnieszkaszumilas9507]

delightfull... many thanks from Poland :-)

[@FRAGIORGIO1]

Christie has managed a credible version of Atys at the time of Lully and Louis XIV. --Bravi tutti!

[@amandajack7315]

I have just seen this opera for the first time at Versailles opera house. Even though it was not a fully staged version the music was incredible and this scene was especially beautiful. Thank you to William Christie for re-energising this genre 🎻🎶🇫🇷

[@christieb2550]

Qué privilegio has tenido... Yo he visto el video de esta escena una y otra vez. Y la descubro cada vez más fascinante. La puesta de W.C. ilumina un momento culminante del arte barroco. Un saludo desde la Argentina.

I saw this performance at BAM. It was breathtaking, splendid. Paul Agnew (lead tenor) was Le Sommeil, Cyril Auvity (second tenor) was Morphée, Callum Thorpe (bass) was Phobétor, and Benjamin Alunni (third tenor at the back) was Phantase.

[@tiagomaia8949]

I love this piece. I've heard it probably 1000 times! Bravo Lully, and bravo to these amazing singers!

[@Lespace2]

He was the best baroque dancer ever in the last decades …

"Dormons, dormons tous; ah que le repos est doux! Régnez, divin sommeil, Régnez sur tout le monde, Répandez vos pavots les plus assoupissants; Calmez les soins, charmez les sens, Retenez tous les coeurs dans une paix profonde. Ne vous faites point violence, Coulez, mumurez, clairs ruisseaux, Il n'est permis qu'au bruit des eaux de troubler la douceur d'un si charmant silence. Dormons, dormons tous; ah que le repos est doux! "

[@ТатьянаВоронина-ъ1ю]

Лучшее воплощение этой оперы во все времена! Всё таки это Франция! Перфект!

[@ac8907]

C 'est de l'ART my God

[@Forcroi]

C'est wunderbar

[@ИринаМорозова-з6ч]

Благодарю! Я очень люблю эту музыку и стиль!

[@natamaximova3446]

И я!))

[@morrighanbond]

Nata Maximova в Петербурге ставим Атиса с французским постановщиком в октябре 2019 на фестивале Earlymusic! Приезжайте!

[@robertdebelleme658]

Lo que no se ha dado en T.V. comercial, ahora se puede ver gracias a estas plataformas y canales. Es un bien inapreciable; que se amplíe, diversifique; y no cese.

[@Ennah08]

Cybèle causes him to fall asleep. The allegorical character Le Sommeil sings "Dormons, dormons tous" after a lengthy instrumental introduction featuring gentle music in G minor scored for a pair of flutes, violins, and basso continuo. Once asleep, Atys is first met by a chorus of Pleasant Dreams that sing of love.

[@georgecampbell3501]

Thanks for the explanation !

[@FRAGIORGIO1]

Thank you for your explanation.

[@danielalmada9062]

hay que comentar la cultura, mostrar cosas como estas.

[@michaelagoschnik9199]

Does anyone know the name of this wonderful balett dancer?

[@silviabenussi4890]

I think the director has grasped the spirit of the time.

[@somethinggtwo]

It's William Christie, I'm telling you he's a gift

[@invictusinvictus2147]

Спасибо

[@disconnexiondisconnexion1756]

У Сирила самый красивый голос и в ансамбле его лучше всех слышно .

[@robertojoaquimdemelo9625]

Nesta peça o coro intervém de maneira incrível, dando o tom da dramaticidade do enredo.

[@georgecampbell3501]

I understand all this was scripted, so it is interesting to see this performance. Vuelen Dank !

[@adamnoman4658]

Hardly. The "livret" of these operas may contain the instrumental and vocal music (and text), not necessarily fully orchestrated, and indications of the general scene and the entry of various characters, but not details of stage movement (not speak of individual gestures), dance choreography, or costuming. Although there is notated choreography from other sources for a few solo and couple dances from the operas by Lully (and others), these are from two or more decades later and may not represent what was originally performed. There are no such written choreographies for group dances of the corps de ballet. That said, it seems quite improbable that period staging would have included a figure lying prone on the floor of the stage. The frozen, cramped postures of the vocal quartet are also quite mannered in a very modern way.

[@pierrejourdan4819]

À tout cela, il faudrait recréer les fabuleux décors du trop souvent oublié Vigarani.

[@ssoomee]

Does anyone know where I can see the entire program?

de la dentelle !

[@gilgermesch]

Putting on a historical costume and standing in contrapposto does not historical acting make. Where are the gestures? Where are the facial expressions? They're like singing statues!
