From Act III, sc iv of Lully's tragedy "Atys" comes the sleep scene and air "Dormons".

In the opera the air is played, followed by a sung trio/quartet and repeated as a dance air.

Here Suzanne Paterson and Melissa Fink of the La Belle Danse baroque dance company embody spirits of sleep. Their dance is adapted from a slow entrée for two women.

Singers are Hallie Fishel, Paul Grindlay and Mary Bella.
