'Dancing is essential in a well-ordered society because it reveals whether
lovers are in good health,' wrote French theorist Thoinot Arbeau in 1588. A
Rennaissance bouquet of instrumental dances and songs is collected here,
culled from the wealth of music written for the entertainment of monarchs at
the French court. The music ranges in character from a ceremonial royal entry
with drums to the lament of a great Queen on the death of her husband, from
stately pavanes and galliards to lively and rustic branles.
