I had this brainrot in my head all week. Just two cuties dancing an allemande (???)

yeah she's dancing in her stays, don't worry about it, I assume they're alone or James wouldn't have indulged this side of himself I've decided that he has

I referenced this vid on youtube, which was an excerpt from something called Dancing Through Time. In my brief and poorly-educated searches on baroque dance, I came across two different ideas about what it was - a much simpler and less touchy-feely dance, and the one I linked above, which appears to be the 18th century version of grinding on the dance floor swing and actually looks like a lot of fun.

Yearly obligatory reblog 😌

Today is World ballet Day, and you must be crazy if you thought I’d let this day pass with no new post soooo… here we are! With a ballet from the 18th century staged in the 18th century way! ISN’T THAT AWESOME?

This is the scene no. 7 of “Didona Abbandonata, ballo tragico pantomimo” (1766) by Gasparo Angiolini. This is a live recording from 2015, re-staged by Helena Kazárová. All this looks just gorgeous. I with there was a troupe of baroque dancing near me.

The internet warps things in such interesting ways. I'm watching a Lully opera right now, and it's lovely---but I have tickets to see a couple live operas in the next few weeks, and that's the luxury, the live experience. Not the fact that I can be bored on a Saturday morning, pull up my public library's website, and just start playing a filmed opera on Medici.com. No, doing the thing the way it's been done for 350+ years. That's the luxury.

He's NOT gonna admit how he wants to be the femme in those romantic poems he's been reading...

Absolutely not.

Sit back, just sit back, just sit back and relax. Just sit back, just sit back, just sit back and relapse again.

Can't take the kid from the fight? Take the fight from the kid. Sit back, relax, sit back, relapse again. Can't take the kid from the fight? Take the fight from the kid. Just sit back, just sit back.

You're a regular decorated emergency, You're a regular decorated emergencyyy..
