Correction to video: François Couperin is Louis Couperin’s nephew. François’s father was Charles Couperin, but his grandfather was also a Charles. And in case you weren’t confused yet, François had another uncle named François. The François I mention in the video is often called “Couperin the Great” or “Couperin le Grand” which helps to distinguish him from his similarly named family members.

This videos are gold fr

Among string players, there's a specific type of bowing called " louré ". I am a cellist. Thanks for shedding light on the origins of that term!

Early! Loving these videos, Musica Universalis.

baroque suites are very nice to listen to

I've never seen videos about music so useful I need to grab a pencil and take notes before; that ended up happening for all the form and rhetoric videos, though! Amazing as always!

Man I can't believe I just discovered this channel, this is absolute gold! I honestly hope it hasn't died, I see the most recent video was 4 months ago; so if the owner of the channel sees this, know at least one person appreciated stumbling upon your work :)

Great video, and I agree that Brahms probably did know of its existence as he was known to study earlier music intensively...I also think that approaching that sonata with this in mind is a novel idea worth exploring further

Thank you very much! As a pianist and composer I couldn't think of more useful formats for a video. This is pure knowledge concentrated in 10 minutes. When I see your videos in my main UKposts screen I just jump in happiness. Please keep doing such a useful work! You are great!

another great one

Fantasic video as always, the Loure is one of my favorite forms to compose in! I hope to see a Pavane/Galliard video in the future.

These videos are doing a great job navigating us through the labyrinth that is the baroque suite! I really hope you get to videos on the movements named canarie, rigaudon, tambourines, air, etc. Thanks so much!

Interestingly as spanish I've never heard of the loure. I'm not a specialist but I think I have a fairly good idea of the rennaisance and baroque dances originated or influenced by spanish folk music (Canarios, Pasacalles, Folías, Chacona etc), but hearing the rythm I think they could have made the supposition it was a spanish dance maybe for its similitude to the Danza Alta, a rather archaic and slow rennaisance dance that was said it was the favourite music in the spanish court, or even a slower Spagnoletta (ukposts.info/have/v-deo/r6N1fHyNb66il2g.html to get an idea of what I say) , a delicious fast dance with usually the same melodic line, very tipical procedure in spanish folk music (as the Guardame-las-vacas or the Romanesca). Good videos!

Love your video and love your voice!

Bravo! Thanks!

Excelent video list! Will you do you a Sonata Form video soon?

Great video! May i ask which recording you used of Bach's Violin Partita 3 Loure?

it would be fun if you covered schottis some day:)

Have been waiting for understanding form: The Sonata 😄.

Your videos, especially the form series is, very appreciated, thank You very much. May I form a wish, what's about Toccatas or Preludes, another zoo of forms?

Any recommendation for a book about barroque dances?

Next: Bourrée

Nice video, could you do the allemande
