Francois Couperin - La dilligente

[marsvltor2]

Ipno-and???

[marsvltor2]

The great Gustav at his weakest.  The French school was never really his patch! Listen to Verlet or Gilbert, and suddenly Versailles comes to life...

Bro, I love pickles on my cheeseburger.

I'll take my uncivilized world over theirs and work to make it better, while holding onto their excellent music. That's the nature of evolution.

[tpno2005]

@sigft25 Civilized = Absolute monarchy, aristocracy, slavery, exploitation of indigenous peoples in colonies?

[NotHomelessAnymore]

@tpno2005 Civilised = Absolute rule by an uneducated mob among whom the literacy rate is declining, globalised economic exploitation of the world's poor, unsustainable consumption of the world's fossil fuels, the use of torture on untried terrorist suspects, a capital city whose wealthiest boroughs offer a haven to the most evil warlords in Africa, the illegal proliferation of nuclear weapons?

It's all relative ;-)

[Trinitrotolaissance]

@NotHomelessAnymore This world needs a serious overhaul and an upgrade in thinking.

[hpcine]

C'est du sérieux, et du merveilleux.

Grande Leonhardt.

[TheGravicembalo]

great francois!!but nobody have understend

why he says:l'art de mes anciennes est plus admirabble qui imitable...

[1401JSC]

Imitable est à la fois ce qui PEUT $être imité ou ce qui DOIT être imité.

Il n'est pas sûr qu'un compositeur serait très à la mode s'il devait imiter le style de ces prédécesseurs, et la musique n'avancera jamais.

[napoleoneterzo]

Excellent!!!I loved Couperin and the Harpsichord!

[sigft25]

Thanks for sharing. A reminder of the times when the world was still civilised...

[starrynightuk]

ah that's nuts! Do you any idea how uncomfortable and unpleasant life was for the poor in those days?

[am1966ath]

@sigft25 Actually the lot for the common people in the 18th century was quite hard and harsh..Couperin wrote music for a priviliged few who had whigs and lived in gilded salons..

[wolkowy1]
