Renaissance Basse Dance: Danse de Clèves

This dance was recorded live during our performance of Echoes of Pilgrimage, 3rd December 2023, at Trinity Uniting Church, Brighton, Victoria, Australia.
'Echoes of Pilgrimage' was based around a historically informed fictional journal of a pilgrimage undertaken c.1520, from Canterbury in England to Rome in Italy, the Via Francigena, with additional visits to Walsingham (England) and Montserrat (Spain).
We performed song, music and dance associated with locations along the journey... with the occasional sprinkling of poetic licence.
The research and writing of the fictional pilgrim journal were undertaken by CAPV members Sally and David Ranson.
The Courtly Arts Performers of Victoria are an Australian performance group, comprising dancers formerly known as the Ripponlea Renaissance and Baroque dancers, and the Early Music Consort of Melbourne.

❤🎉😊🎉❤ Bravissimi! Mi piacete molto, vi ammiro per la vostra determinazione, tutto è accurato, coreografie, costumi, trucco e parrucco, i musicisti, i coristi, perfino gli arazzi come sfondo! Bellissimo! È infine mi piace che siate normali, vecchi giovani, alti, magri o abbondanti. Non credo che in ogni tempo nelle occasioni festose abbiano danzato solo i belli, giovani e i perfetti, invece danzavano tutti comunque fossero! Come dicono i francesi "viva la differenza!" 😂
