  • His dancing is SUPPOSED to be silly. The character is Harlequin, a comic, silly character.

  • Jean Baptiste Lully was the court appointed composer at the court of King Louis XIV and the dance's shown in the video can be probably dated from that era!

  • It is ironic, to me this is Lully's most beautiful work and it is for the harlequin!

  • Harlequino! 

  • lost for words...

  • Wonderful musicians!!! 

  • un'arlechino stupendo! bravissimo. galantissimo e allegro simultaneo!!

  • This chaconne also was set by Robert de Visee for theorbo.

  • I wonder how many modern dance moves have their origins in these old dances.

  • For my 18th Birthday, my grandfather invited me and my family to Italy. He said he'd give me a surprise for my 18th birthday. I thought he'd give me a lamborghini or something cool. However, it turned out that he hired six silly Harlequins and his musical crew to his mansion to perform a show for me. After the show he asked me how did I like it, I said: " Thanks, grandpa, it was really a surprise to me. I didn't expect it at all. I think I will never forget how did I celebrate my 18 b-day."

  • good !!
