{"product_id":"musical-theatre-at-the-court-rebecca-harris-warrick-9780521020220","title":"Musical Theatre at the Court of Louis XIV: Le Mariage de la Grosse Cathos","description":"Dance played a major role in all French Baroque theatrical entertainments. Le Mariage de la Grosse Cathos, a short ballet performed at the court of Louis XIV, is of major importance, largely because it has survived complete in all its components - choreography, music, and text - and also because it uses a previously unknown dance notation system. This book reproduces the entire manuscript of this ballet and provides a comprehensive study of the work itself and of the circumstances in which it was created and performed. Chapters devoted to the composer, choreographer, and performers provide a framework for understanding the performance context not only of this work, but of other court entertainments of the period. A study and evaluation of the notation system in which the dances are recorded, together with a detailed analysis of the dances, completes the introduction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Harris-Warrick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521020220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521020220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.60h x 8.30w x 0.20d","brand":"Rebecca Harris-Warrick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44245045444863,"sku":"9780521020220","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_76e0c669-bfba-47ec-84e6-36ad0c0f0509.jpg?v=1693925804","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/musical-theatre-at-the-court-rebecca-harris-warrick-9780521020220","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
