Lully: Chaconne from Phaeton; Carlos Fittante and Voices of Music

[@LuminousRaven25-01]

Carlos Fittante never expressed Baroque Dancing better than in this UNEARTHLY performance! No words can explain thIs exquisite MAGIC he displays with the wonderful musicians interpreting Lully's magnificent, elegant music! We are transported totally back in Time! This is so ETHEREAL!

[@LuminousRaven25-01]

Watch Carlos Fittante's feet alone; following the exquisite Louis Pecour choreography ... To this captivating Lully music, played by these magnificent musicians, we can clearly see our beloved, Almighty Father dancing in this man's feet! And in the dancer's fluid arm gestures we seem to see his own Love towards his God! (At the very beginning Carlos Fittante's arms open in front of the Cross in sweet, understated reverence; this made the entire dance with fabulous Meriem Bahri period costume, so utterly ethereal) ... Since I came across this masterpiece I now watch it nearly every day! ... And no matter what horror is happening around us, Carlos's interpretation seems to soothe all our cares away! God bless and protect him and everyone involved in this PURE ACT OF MAGIC ... ALWAYS AND FOREVER! The best way to describe this particular perfomance in one word, with no exaggeration whatsoever is: D+I+V+I+N+E ... D+I+V+I+N+E ... D+I+V+I+N+E !!!

La Chaconne è una musica bellissima e una delle danze che daranno origine alla Suite o Partita; Lullly è un maestro dell'arte barocca e la danza un momento fondamentale alla corte di Francia. Eccellente l'esecuzione e ammirevole la leggerezza, la grazia e il tempo del ballerino , anche perché i balli , come il minuetto, non sono affatto facili. Grazie per la bella e armoniosa rappresentazione di musica e danza.

[@lawrencebrown3677]

I have watched other dancers dancing to to the same music but there is an easy deftness & lightness of execution in Carlos Fittante's movements which others could not quite match. Absolutely enchanting.

[@1faramondo]

What wonderful Dancing & Instrumental playing. This was one of the very best concerts I have ever attended. BRAVO to all.

[@msjapan112]

Graceful arm movements. Go so well with the music. Wonderful!

Today we commemorate Jean-Baptiste Lully (Florence 1632- Paris, 22 March 1687). The Chaconne from the Opera Phaëton (LWV 61, 1683). Choreography by Louis Pecour, reconstructed and danced by Carlos Fittante. Lully: Chaconne from Phaeton; Carlos Fittante and Voices of Music

Great to see actual Baroque choreography with Lully! too many times I've seen online some "groups" playing on original instruments BUT using "modern dance" and costume for the choreography. Non sequitur. Why bother with original performance practice if you're going to use modern dance? Thanks for this!!!

[@alessandrovaccari782]

[@richardcleaver5440]

When I watch these recovered dances of the French baroque--which I love--I can't help thinking how much of the style still remained in Auguste Bournonville's choreography for the Royal Danish Ballet 150 years later. It seems to me, though I'm no expert, that the port de bras is a little less restrained than the Bournonville style expects, but the emphasis on intricate footwork relatively low to the ground is still there, along with the "bounce."

[@susanhenry4073]

I find it fascinating to see where ballet derived from.

[@robertpasternak8140]

Existe une autre chacone de lully,ou le remarquable duo bois : Marc et Anna,y trouverait toute leur place.ils enchanteraient la beauté de ce morceau.mais,je ne suis qu'un simple mélomane,pas très connaisseur,donc c'est juste une idée qui me vient à l'esprit en écoutant lully.reste que tous vos musiciens sont de bonne qualité,malgré toute mes incompétences dans ce domaine,peut être ne me suis je pas trompé. Bonne continuation.

[@thekingshussar1808]

French-Italian

[@luislute]

@@thekingshussar1808 Lully might have been born Italian, but his music is thouroughly French...he basically invented the French style.

[@FRAGIORGIO1]

It seems complicated. Maybe, Louis XIV favored it as he was a good dancer.and thus could shine or outshine others, as a king should do, or at least as Louis must have thought. He did it pretty well.

[@janeycole3327]

We make an evening teatime ritual of watching V.O.M and it's always inspiring. We are curious about that spectacular harpsichord with the superb 18th century style painting of the coastal scene. Could you help us with some information? Thanking you, John and Jenni, Murrumbateman, Australia.

It’s totally fey and silly but the overall effect is utterly magical. It must have been transporting for audiences back in the 1600’s these sort of dances. In a world so rough and vile. In fact it is the same as now!

It expresses much emotion but it isn't as fast as modern dancing.
