I could spend hours listening to and watching that opera !!!!
Magnificent, the Sun King must be very pleased
THEY WERE WICKED, MY FAVORITE IS ATHENAIS DE MONTESPAN.
Au château de Versailles tout était magnificence et beauté. Finesse et douceur de vivre. Merci de redonner à ce palais un peu de son âme. J'espère un jour être invité.
THE WHOLE PARIS SHOULD DRESS UP AS IN 19668 UNDER LE ROI SOLEIL.
... he looks like a Chevalier to me. Very handsome in this period!!
what a wonderfully different world. Truly, 2018 was a magical time, before the pandemic.
This brought me to tears, the beauty of it all. What has been lost.
Versailles is magnifique! However it was, for the most part a gold encrusted prison to keep the nobility under control and in debt to Louis XIV. You could be a Duc or Comte but you had to live at Versailles and hire commoners to manage your estates. As a noble it was against the law for you to work, so you borrow heavily from the king to pay for the ostentatious costumes you had to wear and state you kept. Because of the Frond, a war between factions, during the minority of Louis XIV's reign, the king when he matured was bent on abandoning Paris and crushing the factions. It worked but the cost was the eventual revolution that took place 74 years after he died. I love visiting Versailles right before closing. The crowds are gone, the place is silent, it is a big beautiful and sad building. I highly recommend seeing any opera at the royal opera or any performance after hours.
One thing we could have done without was the massacre of the Huegenots and other Protestants by the regime.
Beloved Majesties of France.
How neat. Like ghosts of the past.
This brings me joy. It’s my dream. And seeing how they present the people! Amazing
God I feel depressed.....We never do anything like this in the UK. Any historic property would want you out by 4:00pm because the 12 year old house manager will want to go to bed by 9:00pm
lol, but in america we don't really have that many structures as old and grand as france or the uk
@@PersephineKore We do re-enactments , but it's always military based, in which case, we're outdoors all the time, and we mostly do Medieval and Victorian/WW1.
Thats what makes me so sad. We have 1000's of impressive large historic properties over here, but if you want to stay at them as a re-eanctor, you have to sleep in a tent in the grounds, and they kick you out by 5:00pm.
These type of events are happing quite a lot in the UK actually. I didn't realise it until recently myself, like most things it depends on knowing the network. If you start by googling a generic term like 'Regency ball' you will find several going on throughout the year - lots of clips on CZcams too!
@@IfUfindthisURlost Yes occasionally you'll get something in Bath assembly rooms, or a group like the covent garden dance group. But having been an 18th century re-eanctor, and and 17th century re-enactor, and also having worked for the National Trust, I've kind of gotten used to the attitudes of heritage sites.
When I was in an 18th century society group, we tried to get in Audley end house. They agreed to have us.......but we were to go in the stable block and had to be out at closing time. We told them to stuff it.
Magnifique Miguel Angel.
You remind me of how the Chevalier de Lorraine must have appeared at those palace soirees.
Oh-la-lá! Qué elegancia, la de Francia !! ♥
C'est magnifique !
Cool, it just looks a bit weird that there's such variety in the periods people's costumes are based on. The announcer of the entrants had the nicest costume, in my opinion.
Willem de Fesch I am agree with you. It supposed to be 17th and 18th century period but you see all kind but some don’t even much any of the Versailles period. They should be a little more strict with the dress code protocol. Before I attended I thought was going to be late 17th century baroque style and early 18th century rococo style since that was Versailles golden age. Although seems that most people mostly like the Marie Antoinette period since I guess is what most people relate Versailles due to her tragic death, specially when people are not really familiar with Versailles history.
I always wanted to get up and dance to the theme of Masterpiece Theatre.
I wish we can go back to this era
Ikr
But without all the savagery lol
WE CAN IF WE ALL DRESS UP ACCURATE COSTUME OF 1668.
Appearance wise, then yes, because even the working class looked classy. But I do not think it would go down well, if we socially and religiously went all baroque.
The 2 singers and the organist are very good. Thanks so much for taking the video. Its really wonderful.
i wanna know their names
how much did it cost to go to the party? I was invited to a rave there years ago. this looks surreal. gorgeous outfits!
Gorgeous
When that guywith the camera gave us eye contact it gave me a shiver,just how I imagine a noble looking at me if I was common. Holy crap!this was fun!
Everybody looks amazing! What a dream to be experience this!!
There should be a dress code!!! Some people are poorly dressed. I’m sure the ghost of the members of the old fashion court are suffering seeing so many people poorly dressed. You had a great costume. Great video too
Agree with you. It should be definitely a more strict dress code. The theme of the night was The Roi Soleil but the general dress code, it is just period costumes.
How most people associated Versailles with Marie Antoinette most choose XVIII century Fashion but besides that some costumes were definitely as you said, poorly made or not even from the Versailles period.
@@MichelSarmento even worse!!! The king sun!!! What a wasted opportunity to dress properly. I hope in the future the dress code gets more strict. And yes most people associate Versailles with Marie Antoinette but they don’t even dressed how the queen used to dress!!! I saw some late medieval dresses in your video, and others that look out of a costume fair. Again, very disappointed at the dress code but I’m sure there was people that really did an effort to fit the theme and the vibe of Versailles!
Ja vi o video varias vezes!! Quero poder ir nesta festa absolutamente linda!! Acredito que alguns pessoas nesta festa moram neste castelo...
One of the most beautiful things to experience. I’m envious. This is my dream to go ❤️❤️
Gorgeous! I can't take my eyes off him
Tenue superbe magnifique! Je suis un jeune reconstitueur qui va bientôt se lancer dans cette époque! Superbe témoignage! ;)
Merci :) vous allez assister en 2019?
@@MichelSarmento Oh j'aimerai beaucoup mais je pense que je n'aurai pas ma tenue à temps ... mais certains de mes amis y seront certainement ;)
Guillaume Baldassarri tu peux le louer
j devais louer le costume à Londres parce que ja n’ai pas eu le temps de le faire.
They confused 17th century and 18th century fashion though. You got it right: Versailles´s great period was Louis XIV style.
The event specified only period costumes from the 17th to 18th century basically from the the reign of the founder Louis XIV to its end of the French monarchy with Louis the XVI.
I personally would like they specific to dress more accordingly to an specific era so everyone will look in a pattern but I guess they prefer to give people the choice as long they respect the period costume code.
I chose Louis the XIV because it was the most glorious time of Versailles.
@@MichelSarmento Yes, after Louis XIV, cultural life moved to the salons and palais of Paris.
Take me there!
Que lindo!! Quisiera estar ahi
So beautifully over the top, i LOVE it ♥
Magnifico 😊
You're so handsome just had to say it lol

❤❤💃♥️♥️

So adorable 💓 i wish some day
I wish to go there!
Love it
I want to be invited 😭😭😭😭
You don’t really needed to be invited. You can buy tickets to attend and require to dress up. It’s pricey but I’m sure it’s worth it
WOW!!!!
как машина времени. Погрузилась в атмосферу начала 18 века
Bro I want to go I want to dress as Louis xiv in his Apollo outfit he used at his ballet of the night performance from le roi danse.
Uuuggghhhhhh❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Bonjour, combien de temps fetes Galantes dure-t-elle? A quelle heure le palais s'ouvre-t-il ? J'aimerais participer à la prochaine. Je vous remercie
jemini killer bonjour. La ball dure six heures. De dix-huit heures à vingt-quatre heures. Toutes le information c’est à la site. Je serai là l’année prochaine. À l’année prochaine.
Yes, it was a privileged life, but you had to obey the court rules, follow every bitchy intrigue, and were always near broke financing your lifestyle. As Louis XV may have said, "After me, the deluge".
magnifique, vous etes tres beau! j y vais en 2019, est ce que le buffet repas etait bon?
.Merci:) Je veux y retourner. Allez-vous? Le buffet c’est bonne mais c’est simple.
Mais c’est important per ça te donne soit et faim.
@@MichelSarmento comment faut il faire pour être invité à cette fête ?
@@TheFabcap tu achete ton ticket, darling
@@MichelSarmento oui j y vais, j espere vous voir
I feels like it's shot in 3d
voila notre pays la france vive nous vive le roi dieu a notre aide mort aux paient je vous die merde vive notre roi en
How much do we have to pay for the costumes and make up etc? Do people normally come with a dancing partner of their own?
There are different prices check their website. I recommend the one can you eat and drink because the cheaper prices you can’t and since you will be there for many hours it is worth it. You can definitely go by your own and you will find lots of people to dance with it.
Comment fait ton pour y assister et combien cela coûte ? J’aimerais beaucoup y aller
C'est une belle expérience.
Le prix dépend de la catégorie. Vous pouvez aller sur leur site internet pour voir tous les prix.

J'espère vous y voir l'année prochaine
Mais où d'y aller trouver les costumes avant de la fête ?
Salut. à Londres, ça s'appelle “ Angels Costumes” mais j'ai dû le réparer un peu pour l'améliorer.
@@MichelSarmento votre est vraiment d'une raffinement unique, bravo...moi, il fait me trouver une a Versailles...ou Paris... si je pouvais faire une moi-même selon une dessinée de moi... j'espère qu'il n'y aura pas des nouvelles vagues en septembre pour l'édition 2021 ...j'achèterai mes billets un de ces jours là
Image if they had phones back then.
What’s the opera name at 6:35
Not sure 🤔
@@MichelSarmento oof what a shame. Sounds gorgeous tho
14 Motets, Book 1: Tota pulchra es
From André Campra
C'est bien mais le visionnement donne un peu la nausée. Jck
And spoke French.
Hide your hair pins.
I can't imagine living back then. The stink must have been unbearable. No one bathed with any regularity. Versailles was freezing during the winter and hotter than Hell's front porch in the summer. Those ball rooms packed with people and lit with thousands of candles. It's a wonder people didn't faint. And there was virtually no plumbing in the place. People used to look for dark corners of hallways to relieve themselves. The clothes and music were nice. But I will stick to my own century thank you. I like being alive and still in possession of most of my teeth at age 55 as well as enjoying the company of other people who shower daily. None of which was likely in the 17th century.
The chimney's were too short too. Louis rejected the original chimney plans since he thought they broke up the symmetry too much. So the fire places were smokey affairs. Of course Louis also hated to have closed windows. He had them open most of the time even in winter.
@@sgregg5257 I don't remember which of the many architects who worked on the palace offered the King a "solution" of the frieze above the actual roof level to permit better chimney draw while still concealing them from ground view. Unfortunately it interrupted the air flow too much and was only partially effective. With the Fronde always in mind, Louis commented that his architects and others didn't understand the true purpose of Versailles.
Louis XVI embraced a design by Franklin that worked better.
True. Yet, they viewed themselves as clean. I have forgotten which lady was offered the high honor of riding with the King in his coach but refused because he stank so badly. We romanticize them too much. They were filthy and the stench in the palace must have been horrible. In attempting to extract one of his teeth, the "dentist" tore the King's palate resulting in a permanent defect that plagued the rest of his life. Louis XV survived childhood only be having been shielded from the court physicians by his mother. Tough times even at the top. But we shouldn't forget that even U.S. Presidents in the recent past have had very bad medical care.
And a Pope died from neglected DVT.
What do you expect? People back then didn't have deodorants, toothbrushes, etc... They'd used perfumes and creams to disguise the odors. They didn't have the advances we have today, give them a break.
@@royery You misunderstand my comment. I am not attacking them personally. They were the product of their time and lived as best they could, given their limited knowledge and resources. In short, they didn't know any better. But I do. After comparing their world and my own, I have reached the conclusion that I vastly prefer my own time.
