An original 18th century solo sarabande is here adapted to a duet for dancers Carin Ruff and Suzanne Paterson of Toronto's baroque dance company, La Belle Danse.

The tune is drawn from Marin Marais' 1706 opera, "Alcyone".

  • @barochial Thank you - Glad you enjoyed!

  • this is probably one the very best choreographed baroque pieces from the middle period (1685-1720) that I have ever seen! The posture is wonderful, and the costumes float above the ankles and showcase the foot movement. BRAVA!!
