[0:45] Le Triomphe de l'amour Prélude de la nuit (Lully)
Some Info:
Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632-1687)
Italian-born composer (French nationality from 1681). Entered service of Louis XIV 1653, composed instrumental music for the court ballets. From 1664 collaborated with Molière in series of comedy-ballets which were forerunners of French opera, the last and most famous being Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, in which Lully danced role of the Mufti.
Having assimilated both Italian and French styles and tastes, from 1673 he turned to opera composition and obtained from the King exclusive rights to arrange operatic performances in Paris.
His death was caused by a gangrenous abscess which formed in his foot after he struck it with the long staff he used for beating time on the floor while conducting a Te Deum to celebrate Louis XIV's recovery from illness.
This scene is so amazing, the music, the costumes, the skull masks and the changing into black.. I am still blown away :)
agreed!
The music after 0:45 really is beautiful, it makes me imagine the silent night-time gradually settling on Earth - twilight, sunset, and then the dark finally.
It must be repeated this scene is fictive because Molière didn't die on the stage. He got an apoplexy attack on the stage while playing "Le malade imaginaire" (the hypochondriac patient). Then he was carried away ar his home where he died some hours later in the midst of some his friends. .
+frenchiecocorico1 thinking about it still breaks my heart
The whole film is fictive, at best...
I really don't understand how people like it so much
@@claim2game027 not my favorite film about classic musicians, but the soundtrack really is something else!
After a decade I still come back to this….
Very powerful scene.
It must be repeated Lully never studied italian music style and was musically taught by french masters (Nicolas Métru for the violin, François Roberday for the composition and Nicolas Gigault for the keyboard instruments adding to some occasional masters like his father in law Michel Lambert).
great movie....
Thanks pal. This scene causes the impression desired on the public, it's kind of rough, but "great".
Thanks.
Context might help. I believe in the Film, Legislation has passed to ban any but the Royal orchestra to feature more than 6 Musiscians. And Lully is counting the Musicians, (clearly more than 6)
Thank you very much.
The reaction on Lully's face when Moliere died. Everyone else thought it was a part of the play. Poor Moliere.. Lully was a little jealous of him after the King Louis XIV became more interested in Moliere after he broke his ankle under a performance. Poor Lully. To be quite honest. I do not feel pitty for them or anything. They lived their lives and became legends. And as we all know. Legends never die...
very Wonderful and VERY VERY PRETTY music!!!
It's so sad and wonderful!!
0:08 this was the moment that we knew, he f'ed up
chido chido chido, bien por el cuais que subio este morceau tan interesante, bien ese mi pedro en los infiernos
It must be repeated again and again Lully was not italian born but Florentine or better Tuscan born. At this period Italy didn't yet exist as a nation and was no more than a geographic area formed by many independant and sovereign principalities like the Balkans or the Caucasus. Italy became a nation only in 1861 thank to the help of french Emperor Napoleon III.
thats my favorite piece from Lully
Italian born French composer !
Awesome movie (I don't care if it is not historically acurate regarding the characters. That is not the point anyway), great scene and that dance is just.. wow. I am a conservator of paintings and the 17th century art has always been my favourite. The culture, the aethetics, the music and I had no idea the dances are just as wonderful. It's such a shame that this period of time with all it's art and science often gets reduced to cloak and dagger genre.
i love the soundtrack! i hope you can get this film in the US
It's Moliere's death, when he was acting "Le malade immaginaire"; Lully is the guy with dark wig.
I absolutely agree, gdblack.
Qué escena más dura! En toda comedia, se esconde una tragedia! Si bién Moliére no murió en el proscenio, su muerte fué más o ménos lo que describe esta maravillosa escena de Corbieux: Una escena llena de dramatismo y poesía a la vez!.
The man on stage is Molière playing Le Malade Imaginaire, and the other man with black hair we see is Lully, the composer who forbade him to integrate music inti his plays. Then this is the famous scene : Molière's death on stage accompagnied with Lully's Triomphe de l'Amour
I hope i was clear enough
Tchéky Karyo ou Philippe Caubère en Molière ? Je ne peux décider, deux acteurs magnifiques !
He didn't die in the Stage. He died few hour later. When the Act was Over!!
🌹💕
Can be transleted as "well, I did'nt expect this..."
this movie is in fact pretty much aesthetic than anything else i love it but for its beauty not for its content
The first minute of the clip is the most disturbing of the whole movie "Le Roi Danse". Death dancing around and laughing as she gets her grasp on poor agonizing Moliere.
Man!!! If I had dancing skeletons mocking me and prancing all around me, I would really feel like dying. Really scary scene!!!
This film is one of my favorites of all time.
La mort de Molière.
Would anyone explain to me, in english, what was happening, and what they said? Thank you very much.
ammmm no eh visto la pelicula pero se ve que esta wuena!1!!
"Le Roi Danse" By Gérard Corbiau, the same director of "Farinelli il Castrato".
That'd be:
Triomphe de l'Amour: Prélude de la Nuit.
Its in the title...lol
Dying while performing a play called "Le malade Imaganaire", how's that for irony?
Hello! Thank you very much. I only wonder what words Molliere is speaking.
One of the most tragic scenes of the movie. So dramatic, symbolic and sad, all at once. Molière truly lived and died doing what he did best. And the music really helps you to understand and actually feel his agony.
Superba bellezza che riesce a comunicare con vitalità oggi
adesso
2:10-2:38 is the sun setting
i don't know if your are going to see mainly because youtube becomes more complicated with each upgrade but its a part of the Eclogue that is at the beginning of the play it don't remember the name of the part but i think it have something to do with satyrs
@gipcambero Apparemment il était très souvent malade des poumons jusqu'à ce qu'on le croit mort plusieurs fois. Ca a finis en hémorragie après plusieurs années et il est mort tout de même en dehors de la scène.
from what part of Le malade Imaganaire is the music that is played from 0:08 - 0:45 ?
I am not quite sure how Lully reacted to Moliere's Death. (haven't seen this movie for a while now) But the king had grown tired of Moliere and Lully and did not care for them. My history knowledge when it comes to Louis XIV is quite rusty since I haven't read so much about him for a while and because I commented that comment about a year ago.
Which film is this extract from? Ta!!
La Grange écrit ce jour :
« Ce mesme jour après la Comédie sur les 10 heures du soir Monsieur de Molière mourust dans sa maison Rue de Richelieu, ayant joué le rosle dudit malade imaginaire fort incommodé d'un rhume de fluction sur la poitrine qui luy causoit une grande toux de sorte que dans les grans efforts qu'il fist pour cracher il se rompit une veyne dans le corps et ne vescut pas demye heure ou trois quarts d'heure depuis ladite veyne rompue. »."
Sea esta una oportunidad para agradecer a la FACULTAD DE HUMANIDADES del claustro universitario en el que estudié mi carrera de Derecho, allí en medio de la asignatura de ideas políticas, filosofía, teoria del estado y otras..., apredí a conocer estas obras maestras.....
What does he say ?
What's happening at this scene?
Que chanson est
@western42 No he died doing what he liked best, instead of spitting out his lungs in a warm bed!
"Drelin, drelin" not "trop las, trop las". It's meant to be the bell.
GRAN COMPOSITOR BARROCO
música de Lully
}i think that Lully shooting the musicians with his magic cane takes some of the magic of the scene just a opinion i mean it looks so well the music the skeletons dancing and life flying away from Moliere Lully must just stare at him with indifference that would be much more powerful of course in the end he does exactly what i am telling and just watch him die
This is the death of Lully, not Moliere?
No it's the Molière's death
Fier d'être français
En tout cas, le mythe veux que Molière soit mort sur scène, le malade imaginaire état sa derbière création, les auteurs du film "Le Roi Danse" ont choisi de faire mourir Molière en pleine représentation.
it's Molière
They actually worked together on this
Non, il est mort dans la soirée même chez lui des suites d'un malaise déclaré sur scène, c'est 4 jours plus tard qu'on l'a inhumé.
Perhaps it is the best way to die.
It must be repeated "Le bourgeois Gentilhomme" wasn't the last Lully's opera which was in fact "Isis". "Le bourgeois Gentihomme" ( The Bourgeois gentleman) was the last co-operation between Molière and Lully. Lully was a treacherous, hypocritical and envious person who spent his time in fomenting snares to harm his competings (i.e Champion de Chambonnières, Lalouette, ...). In the case of Molière, he obtained a jugement against him that forbid to perform his own plays with Lully music accompaniment and was alone to enjoy this privilege.
Lully's last (completed) opera was actually Acis et Galatea. He actually had an unfinished opera Achille et Polyxinie.
CivilWarBuff82
Only on this point you are right. The last Lully's performed opera was actually "Acis et Galatée"
It must be repeated Lully wasn't the fastuous composer everyone imagines. In fact he was one of the poorest french composer of this times. He always composed in studio gaving a melody of his invention or he heard in the street and then pupils of him (Muffat, Lalouette, Colasse, Marin Marais, Pelham Humfrey, ...) composed the thorougn bass, the counterpoint and the harmonizing. The topic of his operas were always mythological plays about love in which he fawned upon the king Louis XIV.
The better french composers of the period were Charpentier, Desmarets, Couperin, Delalande, ...
Lully was very rich for à reason you gave before hé destroyed all his opponents and won à lot of money.about charpentier no doubt he was a better composer but for the rest I think your are been unfair, lully was an a innovator he create a form of opera that was superior to the italian in every way possible before the Wagnerian drama it was the Tragedie Lyric the best song genre. Lully was a terrible person but a great composer
MsOal
Lully was a mediocre composer. He didn't really innovate french baroque opera but combined various styles he borrowed from other composers (Cavalli or als for the italian opera, Michel Lambert for the recitatives, ...). Often his melodies were plagiarized on popular tunes he heard from Paris street musicians or invented by his own pupils who have done the harmonisation, counterpoint or orchestration of his works too (see Lalouette's affair). Lully became very rich because he was a better businessman than a composer. As I told he was a schemer, an opportunist, a plotter, a careerist and a cheat treacherous flatterer (see Molière, Champion de Chambonnières or Brunet 's affairs). However he was rigourous in his method to conduct orchestra's musicians and an enterprising organiser of the king's music. But he sterilized french music and opera for a century. Lully owes his fame to the domination of the french fashion and style through all Europe during the baroque period. Many foreign composers imitated his bombastic style (Händel, Bach, Purcell, Telemann, ....).
frenchiecocorico1 Purcell was a great composer and he used Lully as a base. What Lully did was to the Opera what Napoleon did To Militar Arts and What Orson Wells did in his Citizen Kane none of them invent anything but they rather convine other things that where invented by others
MsOal
Purcell wasn't inspired directly by Lully but he was learnt by one of his pupils, Pelham Humphrey. Do you know what was the opinion of Pelham Humphrey about Lully "That was a great Monsieur full of his own importance who critized the music of the other musicians except for his own". Purcell was influenced by John Blow and the english tradition too.
There is an only common quality shared by Napoleon and Lully which called Megalomania but certainly not the genius. By the scandalous privilege and protection king Louis XIV granted him, Lully prevented with his mopnopoly all the composer of his generation to compose opera, notabilily the better of them (Charpentier, Desmarets, Lalouette, Delalande, ...). After his dead some composer performed successfully some good operas of theirs (i.e Marin Marais: Sémelé).
At least, you forget completly that the better french baroque opera composer was Jean Philippe Rameau. He was far better than Lully and a fine musical expert theorist. For the genius he could be compared with no doubt to Napoleon's. Between Lully and Wagner you forgot to indicate such unforgettable important composers like Mozart, Rossini, Donizetti, Berlioz, ....
frenchiecocorico1
The quote you gave is from Samuel Pepys's diary and was talking about Pelham Humphrey not about Lully.
Yea he was a tyran we have already stablish that yea Charpentier was better no argue about that.
I am aware of Rameau's Superiority he is the greatest composer of the French Opera and he defened Lully's recitative in the Querelle des Bouffons.
About Wagner im not forgeting hes influences im telling that his Absolute Work of Art was made before by Lully ,Charpentier in Medee and ofcourse Rameau
I dont Like Rossini i think theres nothing more faraway to the french opera Tradition and the Wagnerian.
Lully is not france greatest composer but he gave us theatrical pieces that are among the greatest in western history that's important Lully invented a form: the great theatre written using music notation and he defined western music ,thanks to Louis XIV power and his pupils
Why.. is it a fashion to show baroque as time of idiotic punks?
+Yury Liman Did you even watch the movie?
Çağatay Ege Şahin
Yes I did.
+Yury Lima I agree! It's really annoying the way they depict people from these period... In this film Lully was turned into a truly depicable character
