Phillip Sear plays the first of five 'airs de ballet' entitled 'Réception à la Cour' from 1904 by the French composer Edouard Chavagnat (1845-1913). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I know little about Chavagnat's life, except that he wrote a fair number of salon pieces in the late 19th century. The set of pieces from which this comes portray an 18th century court reception—maybe at Versailles. In this opening minuet, the courtiers, in their party finery, process in front of the King and Queen and pay homage.
