  • Absolutely lovely :) Would anyone by chance know the title of the music that Paige is dancing to in the mask? Around 3:30? Thanks!

  • That is the Passacaille from Armide by Lully.

  • Would anyone know what the first and third songs are from the shepherd and shepherdess section, Thanks

  • Hi, sorry for delayed response!

    First shepherd duet is:

    Entrée pour un Berger et une Bergere (Pécour: c. 1713, Marais: Pièces de Violes "La Muzette")

    Third shepherdess dance is:

    Menuet performd by Mrs. Santlow (LAbbé: c. 1725, Music Anon.)

  • I have the feeling that I could stop this video anywhere and the resulting still would not look out of place in a painting by Watteau or Fragonard. Kudos!

  • Exceptional! Hope to see more soon!

  • It's neat that people are bringing history back to life through these performances! :D I'm just wondering why they don't fully point their toes like ballet dancers???? : S

  • could it be possible to have more details on each pieces of music? 

  • It's by Lully, but it is best known to English-speakers as the tune for the Christmas carol "Masters In This Hall".

  • masters in this hall

  • Beautiful work. All the excerpts were tantalizingly short and left me wanting more. As a long time dancer with Opera Atelier, I've been performing Baroque dance since I was a child, but recently our company has moved into later repertoire, and the dances have become more balletic. I miss the pure Baroque style, and it's great to see such a fine example here on Youtube. Thanks for posting!

  • la danse des riches, ilnecessite beaucoup d'espace pour danser.

  • More of Paige's Harlequin dance please!!!

  • Thank you :)

  • Absolutely excellent, but i'd expect nothing less. Paige is both a great performer and teacher.
