Christmas wish help him set things right?
Since its inception, French opera has embraced dance, yet all too
often operatic dancing is treated as mere decoration. Dance and
Drama in French Baroque Opera exposes the multiple and meaningful
roles that dance has played, starting from Jean-Baptiste Lully's
first opera in 1672. It counters prevailing notions in operatic
historiography that dance was parenthetical and presents compelling
evidence that the divertissement - present in every act of every
opera - is essential to understanding the work. The book considers
the operas of Lully - his lighter works as well as his tragedies -
and the 46-year period between the death of Lully and the arrival
of Rameau, when influences from the commedia dell'arte and other
theatres began to inflect French operatic practices. It explores
the intersections of musical, textual, choreographic and staging
practices at a complex institution - the Academie Royale de Musique
- which upheld as a fundamental aesthetic principle the integration
of dance into opera.

Dance played a fundamental role in French Baroque theatrical
entertainments. Le Mariage de la Grosse Cathos, a comic mascarade
composed by Andre Danican Philidor in 1688, is of major importance,
because it is the only theatrical work from the court of Louis XIV
to have survived complete in all its components - choreography,
music, and text, both spoken and sung. It provides a concrete model
not only of how dance was integrated into the musical theatre, but
of how ballets - or even operaswere staged. Moreover, it uses a
previously unknown dance notation system developed around the same
time as Feuillet notation by choreographer Jean Favier l'aine. This
book reproduces the entire manuscript of the mascarade and provides
a comprehensive study of the work itself and of the circumstances
in which it was created and performed. Chapters devoted to the
music, the dance, and the performers provide a framework for
understanding the performance context not only of this work, but of
other court entertainments of the period. A study and evaluation of
the notation system in which the dances are recorded, together with
detailed analyses of the dances and of the movement indications for
the musicians, complete the monograph.

J. Percy Priest and His Amazing Race is a gift from Rebecca Harris
Stubbs to anyone interested in Tennessee history, American
political history, and the heroes who made this country great. With
previously unpublished letters, personal commentaries from Priest's
friends and associates, and academic analysis extracted from local,
state, and federal records, the author treats us to a light, often
delightful, and distinctly tender narrative. She delves into the
life of a former schoolteacher and journalist who entered Congress
with an upset win after a mere eight-week campaign, and became a
powerful committee chairman, an influential Congressional leader,
and close friend of Billy Graham. Priest left a pronounced mark on
Tennessee and American history, and his name is still associated
with integrity, commitment, and honor more than fifty years after
his untimely death at the age of fifty-six. For anyone in need of a
reminder of what American hero means, this is a book that must be
read.
