Continuo Connect — Concert // Ensemble Molière: The King's Playlist

Ensemble Molière presents a soundtrack of music dedicated to every moment of King Louis XIV’s day, by some of the leading French Baroque composers.

Imagine you’re walking in the shoes of the Sun King. What better way to wake up than to the Ouverture from Charpentier’s Les arts florissants? Then, soak up extracts from Lully’s Phaëton as the sun rises, a little Couperin as one goes about daily business, a Symphonies pour les Soupers du Roy by Delalande to accompany supper, dance music from the Ballet Royal de la Nuit and a suite to dream to from Marais’ Trios pour le coucher du Roy.
