«Ball de Royal am 17ten Tage im November Anno 2012»

Hochwohlgeborene Dame,
Hochwohlgeborener Herr,
Hochwohlgeborene, Erlauchtigste Herrschaften!

Seine Exz. Graf von Wackerbarth, sind zutiefst bestürzt in wie weit sich der Mob und der Pöbel anmaßt über Lehen und Palais der eingeborenen Herrschaften zu entscheiden. So seihen wir gezwungen wurden aus dem schönen Zabeltitz weg zu ziehen und uns ein anderes Unterkommen für den Ball Royal zu suchen.

Anmut (Gratia) und Schicklichkeit, Würde (Decoro) gehörten in früheren Jahrhunderten zu den wichtigsten Tugenden des Tanzes der höfischen Gesellschaft. Aristokratisch geprägt hatte der Tanz auch immer die Funktion der Representatio, der Darstellung der eigenen Person vor den Augen der Zuschauer, die ihrerseits auch Kenner und Könner der Materie waren. Der Bewegungsstil, der daraus erwuchs, zeichnet sich durch variationsreiche Schritte, äußerste Feinheit und Nuancenreichtum aus. Die Sensation liegt sozusagen im Detail.

Du XVe siècle à la Renaissance, nous connaissons essentiellement la danse de cour. Bien danser, savoir chanter et jouer d’un instrument permettaient de tenir avec grâce et dignité son rang dans la société. La Renaissance en musique et en danse est caractérisée par l’introduction dans le registre courtois de formes et d’éléments populaires. C’est ainsi qu’une part importante est accordée aux rondes, facteur de convivialité et de cohésion sociale.

Over 300 hundred pages offer: first, the dances in their original format; the music, transcribed for legibility, indicates the repeat sequences; the original dance instructions for each quadrille are given, in considerably abbreviated form, below the music.
