The Court at Versailles just has to be the most deliciously decadent, opulent and lascivious court in the Baroque period ! French music from this era is sensuality personified, thanks to Monsieur Lully and friends !

We are dancing to two of these pieces of music in my ballet performance coming up soon. I'm very excited, but also very nervous at the same time considering it is my very first time, and also I'm one of the main people in the dance! So I'm trying not to be nervous, but I know it's pretty normal to feel that way, especially being in the situation I had mentioned. Overall, I will try everything to just give it my best shot! Great music too, btw.

[@pianoballetgirl]

@mthrnaturesson I don't think soo . These ballets :Bacchus dans les Indes (1666); Les muses (1666); Flore (1669); La jeunesse (1669); Les deux pythiens (1670); Le triomphe de l'amour (1681); Le temple de paix (1685) Are Composed later and Lully died in 1687 2 years later than "Le temple de paix." is composed

Très belles photos, sauf une qui date (la Chapelle sans sa "crête" dorée). Et est ce que la statue du jeune guerrier (première image) est celle de Louis 14 ? Où est elle ?
