    Thanks for playing it at this tempo and with this feeling! It kills me that most interpretations are played at top speed. I know originally it might have been a kind of speedy "divertimento" piece, but the counterpoint is so beautiful I think it shows at this slower more hearfelt interpretation. GRACIAS!

      I like to think that Couperin was a little deeper than that and that what we hear in this piece is an impression of the games people play, or the polite social faces that we wear.

      @@OnASeasideMission I am French, fascinated by the 18th French century. There was nothing superficial about the feelings in Royal court in that century. Your anachronistic judgement based on today or even 50 years ago, or even 100 years ago for that matter even 200 years ago would STILL NOT be representative of the century of Couperin. So exercise far more caution before transposing your perception to a time of different manners and culture. Most of Couperin's work in his second book, sixth order, are related to women, and to natural locations but that does not mean superficiality as it could in your mind of today. However les baricades mistérieuses is related to a large body of water in Versailles that used to be covered by small wooden floating receptacles tied by a rope that would move when the fountain was splashing. From a distance the movement of these baricades seemed to have a life in it. They no longer exist. The piece of music has this sense of small regular waves that slowly change the pattern of overall harmony until one is surprised by its beauty that one did not anticipate. This is the combination of water and free floating devices.

    Par "ricochet" me reviennent en mémoire des images de " l'Allée du Roi" Nina Companeez ayant très habilement introduit ce morceau assez mystérieux et mélancolique dans son adaptation télévisée du livre de Françoise Chandernagor...
    (Le moment où la veuve Scarron est nommée " Madame de Maintenon" par le roi après une humiliation de la Montespan ). Le morceau étant de 1717, c'est anachronique mais qu'importe !
    Encore merci, le théorbe est un instrument troublant, poétique, mon préféré concernant l'époque baroque !
