The King's Coucher

Entertainment/recreation

Louis XIV was a King of Music: as shown by all the works composed for his “official” life. But who knows the Sun King’s intimate music?

The harpsichord, viola da gamba and luth take precedence over drums and trumpets; the most magnificent singers stand a few steps away from the sovereign, in his bedchamber, to give him some musical beauty to nourish royal dreams…It could be 1705, Lalande, the music superintendent brings together some musicians “called by the King”: Marin Marais, Robert de Visée, Michel de la Barre, Antoine Forqueray, and asks them to come after the Grand Coucher, to present to Louis a last, informal and intimate moment of music. For this exceptional evening, Thibaut Roussel has brought together the best musicians for a revival of the Couchers du Roi. The recording of this programme, made at the Château for the Château de Versailles Spectacles collection, will be released at the same time as the concert. An exceptional moment…
