French sounds from 1724: Forlane by François Couperin

Rustic, elegant, and full of life — this dance from Les Goûts Réunis blurs the line between courtly refinement and popular rhythm.
I adapted it for solo harpsichord in a 2022 live performance, keeping its earthy spirit intact.

Something for #europeday...

Europe's Revels, a dance by John Eccles, from his interlude, Europe's Revels for the Peace, which was performed at court and at London theatres in 1697.
This image of the dance comes from The Dancing Master, Henry Playford, 1698
