This is fabulous! What skill in learning the dances from the 17th and 18th centuries! The dance notatation must be quite complex (I'm guessing the notation includes hand and arm movement(?) I think those dress hemlines would have been considered daring if not scandalous because ladies' feet were not supposed to be seen.
My best wishes to all my 35 friends on the Presidents Day - George Washington and Abraham Lincoln's birthday. Coincidently, by God's Plan, the forgotten President of the Confederacy State of America Jefferson Davis was inaugurated in the same day in 1861. He became a citizen of the renewed USA under leadership of President Jimmy Carter who started receiving hospice care at home in Feb. 18, 2023. Those who grieve about frailty of human existence in this joyful federal holiday, may be consoled with a beautiful baroque dance: "Folie d'Espagne pour femme" published by the French dancer Raoul Auger Feuillet in 1700 (Paris), probably, 16 February, when the USA did not exist at all. That was performed inside Menshikov Palace in St. Petersburg exactly 3 years ago. - Let's Celebrate Presidents Day!
The dancer in yellow really made me feel like she was genuinely from the Baroque period, it was incredible. They both danced so beautifully, but the first dancer was definitely embodying the spirit of the times more, I believe
