This video is part of a series celebrating the 20th anniversary of Concerto da Camera’s establishment. French Baroque music, with its beauty, richness and uniqueness, has been a constant source of inspiration as we strive to deliver innovative musical experiences to our audience. It is only fitting that we have chosen it as the theme of our celebration.

Music does not exist in isolation. The greater political-social dynamics always have an impact on it. By the 1660s, the cultural leadership in Europe had shifted from Italy to France. King Louis XIV deployed huge resources to concentrate his court politically and socially in one place – Versailles, and he used all forms of art to marshal them.

There was a deliberate act on the part of Louis XIV, the ultimate patron of arts, and his cultural team to create a style which has a distinctively French flavour. He established academies for virtually all the creative arts, including dance and music. Inside the academies, arts were organised, rules were drawn up, and so, a kind of unofficial style was developed.

Emerging at the same time was what is said to be the quintessential Baroque art form – opera. It is flamboyant, theatrical, and dramatic. It aims at a total work of art to represent the glory and the splendour of the patron.

In this video, we had the pleasure of interviewing:
Benoît Dratwicki- director of the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles,
Camille Delaforge- of Ensemble il Caravaggio,
François Dollé- Choreographer and. dancer,
Chun Wing Lam- Soloist of the Paris Opera Ballet.

They will guide us through various avenues to better understand and appreciate French Baroque music and dance. In addition, we visited the pinnacle of French Baroque – the Palace of Versailles. We hope you will be dazzled.

紀錄片《法式古樂》為雅樂合奏團慶祝成立 20 週年所舉辦的節目之一。成立以來，我們致力於為觀眾提供別開生面的音樂體驗，而法國巴羅克音樂豐富的曲目、華麗的音律和獨特性，一直是我們重要的靈感來源，以之作為我們今一年的節目主題是再適合不過。

法國於17世紀中葉至18世紀早期在路易十四的統治下，成為歐洲最強大的帝國。她的音樂家建立了一些極具代表性、極其華麗的藝術風格和演繹方式，紅遍整個歐洲。英、德等地的作曲家亦紛紛仿效「法式音樂」進行創作。

我們製作這部紀錄片，正正是想從歷史的洪流中，重新發現和認識這些作品。法國以外的音樂家及藝術史學家經常把法國巴羅克音樂形容為「別樹一格」，彷彿是霧裏看花，終隔一層。這次我們親身前往法國，嘗試從歷史文化背景以及表演者的角度，揭開法國巴羅克音樂的面紗。

作為最具權勢的藝術贊助人，路易十四和他的文化團隊銳意創造出一種屬於法國的獨特風格。他幾乎為所有創意藝術建立了學院，包括舞蹈和音樂。學院制定了規則，藝術在一定程度上被規範化，從而形成了某種風格。

毫不意外地，歌劇在法國宮廷藝術中佔據了主導地位。這背後一位非常重要的人物，是路易十四的御用大樂正，呂利。他把法式巴羅克音樂推展到極致，他把當地傳統戲劇元素與宮廷芭蕾舞融為一體，創造出獨特的法國歌劇風格。

法國的傳統器樂與舞蹈關係密不可分，舞步對樂曲的影響顯而易見，舞蹈亦深深影響着呂利以及其他法國巴羅克作曲家的創作。要了解法國巴羅克音樂，我們就必須對“La Belle Danse”（即巴羅克舞蹈）有所認識。

在影片中，我們採訪了:
伯努瓦·德拉特維奇: 巴羅克音樂中心藝術總監伯努瓦·德拉特維奇
卡米爾‧德拉福奇: 華佐樂團指揮兼藝術總監
皮耶‧弗朗索瓦·多萊: 巴羅克舞蹈專家
林雋永: 歌劇院芭蕾舞團獨舞員

他們將帶領我們從不同角度更全面地理解和欣賞法國巴羅克音樂及舞蹈。此外，我們還拍攝了法國巴羅克的巔峰之作 — 凡爾賽宮。希望你會為之驚豔。
