I also did this type of performances for a while in my life...still miss the royal ambiente...

@@karlashmeedavlasta6365 How do you do? My name is Morgan Murchison and I am in Hungary but I would like to take part in such an 18th century dance. Please can you put me in touch with any groups near where I am? Thank you.

Hello, I was very impressed with this and I would like to take part in such an event and of course wear these sort of clothes.

So You felt like a count and your dance partner a countess in your palace.

It was nice to see your comment. I would like to dance like this with a baroque group. Please can you help me. My full name is Morgan Murchison and I love the 18th century.

william woolhouse, I envy you, both the age and the dancing. Good for you ⭐️

I wish i could attend it

Not so wild Mark!! I Could hardly walk the next day.But I would do it all again.We all had a great time,Then headed off to the pub afterwards fir a jug of Ale !!!

How old are you, now in 2019 ? 😂and where are you from ?

the dainty refined minuet versus bone in the nose twirk, the CORRECT word for disgusting devolving gyrations of an inferior teenage "up yours" immature attitude,one level above toddlers mooning you when thwarted of a snack or play pretty toy .

Sharon Thompson I lost at least 10 IQ points reading your comment.

@@sharonthompson9757 Sorry what?

Helen MA you will now have been now dead for a few 100 years

He should have had a child. Maybe they would have inherited the talent.

I've wondered about the descendants of the Masters like Bach, Mozart, Handel, Telemann & Haydn? Where & who are they? 😕

me too!

no es vallet es un suite de la alta clase el vallet se consideraba una obra de adulterio y extravagante por lo cual el suite dominaba en el siglo 18 se sigue conservando como barroco ya en 1750 con el clasismo Mozart implementa ballet en sus operas y se hace ya un baile mas conocido

Absolutely fantastic!!! 😌

А если в реальности: зачем пытаются "очаровать" - чтоб "снести крышу"? Вот так и разлагались общество - начиная с "верхов"!

What is romanticised is the hedonistic life of a very few that live on the backs of a the poor 95% of their nations. They own the lands and keep the people (peasants) in bondage and TAXES them on top of that ! Slavery, dire inequality and oppression that all along went against their God's will...!! Those handful lucky few are probably also heavily involved in slavery in the colonies. The viewers here that go dreamy and hallucinate about the glory and beauty of that period would have been the hungry and sickly masses ! The French king and queen, friends and family ended up beheaded. The Russian tzar, family and cohorts ended shot with hundreds of bullets. And I myself am NOT a communist nor socialist, just comfortable that I allow God to guide me daily....

Yet if you belonged in the room then you had been taught the steps through out childhood.

@@KatherineRogersI wonder how many other features of life were choreographed? It might have been stifling.

One would have been expected to remember all the movements as you notice there isn't a caller and wouldn't have been one in those days. There was a good chance of meeting your partner at these balls and if you weren't up to scratch, you would not have been considered. Yes I know something about historical dance.

@@EuphoftodayI hope that there was a parallel and robust bohemian culture. If so, they had better dance moves.

Back then Royalty and nobles were expected to learn ballroom dancing.

Lisa Davis There are plenty of us around who do these dances in costume.

Too bad no one in Newbury Park, California wants to join me. I need to move.

I am in the UK and lucky to have plenty of weekly clubs where one can learn these dances. There are regular Saturday dances (not in costume) too, and enough Costume Balls to fill a calendar. Try Googling either "English Country Dancing" or "Playford Dancing" in your area. You may be surprised to find that there is a club. They don't seem to advertise very well. I know a caller (or dancing master) called Mike Barraclough who emigrated from here and now lives in Phoenix Arizona, he teaches classes and arranges dances. Google him too. He may know of classes near you. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Thanks for the information.

Me too :)

yes , it became very popular among all the people ... !

Yes! Though in this performance it works backwards. These dancers were all Professional Ballerinas before they took on this assignment 😊

Muy de acuerdo con vos. Bendiciones

Authentic Period instruments from mid 1700's! In fact the Harpsichord was Certified c1716 & played flawlessly thru the performance. Unreal!

are you sure? No running water or electricity.

Increasing live expectance is only worth when there is something to live.

I wish I were an aristocrat, but taught all sorts of people how to dance and treated them well.

It's nice to dream😘, though as a woman you didn't have much of a say about anything, and all those etiquette rules!

Yeah, but you could be revolutianry and elegant at the same time tho. People could do lots to change the world back then, but they didn't do it.

And to think they call it "progress"....

Amen

@@jamilsalim4454 The French revolution did not accomplish anything other than plunge the country in a decade long blood bath or have you forgotten the guillotine and the period that was termed the Terror where the revolutionary leaders Robespierre, Marat and Danton terrorized the people with wanton trials, wholesale beheadings and other murders, depredations, rapes and violence of every kind on anyone suspected of opposing the revolution even other revolutionaries. All this ended up with Napoleon and the restoration of the Burbon, the conditions of the people did not improve, actually got worse.
