In contrast with the familiar, well-researched ballets and dances of the High Baroque, as exemplified at Versailles under Louis XIV, very little is known about social dancing in France around 1600. There was no established style of dance step notation at this time and the dancing masters' own collections remain largely undiscovered. This wonderful collection of curiosities performed by I Ciarlatani and researched by dance expert Nicoline Winkler, offers fascinating insights into the social dances of the Early Baroque period.
