The Art of Baroque Dance – Folies dEspagne

This fascinating video, produced in France, reveals the 17th century Baroque dance of the sophisticated era of King Louis XIV. The King himself, an excellent dancer, ordered the invention of a notation system for dance to teach, codify, and spread this art. The French still continue to celebrate 17th century dance today. It is considered to be the most perfect form of art, uniting all of the qualities needed to educate one's body and soul. Created by dancers in Paris, the new video, "The Art of Baroque Dance, is generously layered with a wealth of historic architectural and artistic images.

Dove Review

This is an excellent way to broaden everyone’s knowledge of Baroque dance. Filled with great historical information regarding this dance along with the choreographic notes, this DVD will show you the French presentation of this elegant dance.

Included in this DVD are some examples of French art, which are shown. They portray partial nude women and men. They are examples of art and are very tastefully done.
