This video is about Elisabeth Claude-Jacquet de la Guerre - Ballet Suite from "Cephale et Procris" : I. Andante maestoso - Presto - Andante primo. Jacquet de la Guerre was a French Baroque composer and virtuoso harpsichordist (1665-1729), who worked at the court of King Louis XIV in Paris. Her tragedie lyrique "Cephale et Procris," may have been begun as early as 1687, but was not staged until 1694. This live performance by the Four Seasons Orchestra, with Carolyn Waters Broe conducting, was given through grants from the Arizona Women's Partnership, Inc.; Larry Fitzgerald First Down Fund; Whole Foods Market; Women's Philharmonic Advocacy; Sunday Classics Club East; Marjorie Sherman and others. We are grateful to ARS Femina Publications for rediscovering this rare orchestral work. For more information contact Carolyn@fourseasonsorchestra.org. [ Ссылка ]
