The Queen, richly attired, performed regularly, as did the King and his nobles, dancing both solemn and burlesque parts....Most royal ballets were given at least three performances: in the Royal Palace of the Louvre; at the Arsenal where Sully had had a 'salle de Fetes' specially created for the performance of ballets; and at the Hotel de Ville for the benefit of the Burghers of Paris.\" (Margaret McGowan, \"The Court Ballet of Louis XIII,\" p. ii - iii)","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093406568607,"sku":"9969","price":60000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Rabel_dance_design_9969a.jpg?v=1722187819"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/collections\/Shopify_Collection_Cover_Cropped_20396.jpg?v=1721409940","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/collections\/dance-in-stock.oembed?page=18","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
