On 16-21 August 2011, Chalemie will hold its 13th Summer School in Early Music, Dance, Period Costume Making and Commedia. Leading performers from the group will direct a series of workshops on 17th/18th century music, song, dance, commedia and costume making, with a particular emphasis on the English repertoire of this period.

The course this year will be held once more in the delightful surroundings of Headington School, in beautiful old buildings just a mile from the centre of Oxford and situated in 22 acres of parklands, gardens and woodland.

On 13 November I attended a Baroque opera performance at Belfort in France. It was a presentation of the citie's music schools with soloist singers, choir and dancers.

They were presenting two operas: Delalande's «Les Fontaines de Versailles» (1683) and Jean-Baptiste Lully's «L’Idylle sur la Paix» (1685).

I have prepared a shortened version. Here is the first part of the video. A second part will follow shortly.
