Description:

Opera-barre was one of the most popular genres of the French Baroque period. It was enjoyable, with a large proportion of dance music and sometimes comedic elements, and this "Elegant Indian Countries" by Rameau is considered a representative work of the genre." The story consists of four omnibuses on the theme of "love," with the first story set in Turkey, the second in Peru, the third in Persia, and the fourth in uncivilized America. The four stories are about lovers who are torn apart, about a god who intervenes between two people who love each other, about two pairs of lovers who end up with different partners, and about a daughter who is courted by two men but ends up with her true love, which of course requires dancing. This is a work that can be understood even better by seeing it on film.The dancer prodigy Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, who released the documentary "Babel of Dreams" (BAC064) in 2010, has spoken a lot about multiculturalism, identity, and his own feelings, and in "Elegant Countries of India In "Elegant Countries of India," he incorporates the tensions and religious views of countries that were "foreign" to European society in the 18th century, and presents them in a stunning image.
