Musical intermezzo ~~ Jean Baptiste Lully
Jean Baptiste Lully (1632 - 1687) was the composer of choice for Louis XIV. The above selection of his work is rather nice, and gives an idea what Louis was listening to, and perhaps trying a new dance, whilst relaxing from his ambitions to conquer Europe. Though some of the pieces sounds rather martial.
