| Bach - Toccata in G major, BWV 916. Ton Koopman plays. |
 |
A small fragment from Ton Koopman's DVD
"Organ Works. Harpsichord Pieces, Arias". See
http://tinyurl.com/fykkh
This is Presto from Toccata in G major for
harpsichord, BWV 916. The camera operator is
an idiot but it's still fascinating to watch,
esp. NOT played on the piano for once. If
anyone knows of any video of any performance
on the *lute harpsichord* (aka. Lautenwerk),
let me know.

Jean Baptiste de Lully (1632 - 1687).
Chaconne in G Major.
Musica Antiqua Köln.
Florian Deuter (Violin I)

Christian Rieger (Cembalo).
Dir: Reinhard Goebel.
Born in Florence, the son of a miller, Lully
had little education, musical or otherwise,
but he had a natural talent to play the
guitar and violin and to dance. In 1646, he
was discovered by the Duke of Guise and taken
to France by him, where he entered the
services of Mademoiselle de Montpensier (la
Grande Mademoiselle) as a scullery-boy. With
the help of this lady, his musical talents
were cultivated. He studied the theory of
music under Nicolas Métru. A scurrilous poem
on his patroness resulted in his dismissal.
He came into Louis XIV's service in late
1652, early 1653 as a dancer. He composed
some music for the Ballet de la Nuit, which
pleased the king immensely. He was appointed
as the composer of instrumental music to the
king and conducted the royal string orchestra
of the French court, Les Vingt-quatre Violons
du Roi (Twenty-four Violins of the King) or
the Grande Bande (large band). He tired of
the lack of discipline of the Grande Bande
and, with the King's permission, formed his
own Petits Violons.
Lully composed many ballets for the King
during the 1650s and 1660s, in which the King
and Lully himself danced. He also had
tremendous success composing the music for
the comedies of Molière, including Le
Mariage forcé (1664), L'Amour médecin
(1665), and Le Bourgeois gentilhomme (1670).
Louis XIV's interest in ballet waned as he
aged, and his dancing ability declined (his
last performance was in 1670) and so Lully
pursued opera. He bought the privilege for
opera from Pierre Perrin and, with the
backing of Jean-Baptiste Colbert and the
king, created a new privilege which
essentially gave Lully complete control of
all music performed in France until his
death.
He was a notorious libertine. In 1662, he did
marry Madeleine Lambert, daughter of Lully's
friend and fellow musician Michel Lambert,
and proceeded to have ten children by her.
But at the height of his career, in 1685, he
felt confident enough to flaunt his
relationship with Brunet, his young page from
La Chapelle. Although his life is full of
meteoric heights, his love affairs with boys
and women brought him down in scandal several
times to the great displeasure of Louis XIV
and led to his renown as a sodomite.
Despite these scandals, he always managed to
get back into the good graces of Louis XIV
who found Lully essential for his musical
entertainments and who thought of Lully as
one of his few true friends. In 1681, Lully
was appointed as a court secretary to Louis
XIV and was ennobled, after which he wrote
his name "Jean-Baptiste de Lully" and was
addressed as "Monsieur de Lully".
On January 8, 1687, Lully was conducting a Te
Deum in honor of Louis XIV's recent recovery
from illness. He was beating time by banging
a long staff (a precursor to the baton)
against the floor, as was the common practice
at the time, when he struck his toe, creating
an abscess. The wound turned gangrenous, but
Lully refused to have his toe amputated and
the gangrene spread resulting in his death on
22 March. He left his last opera, Achille et
Polyxène, unfinished.
