France Court Ballet

Balthasar de Beaujoyeulx

The first ballets were performed in the French court in the 16th century. These early ballets were called ballet de cour, which means "court ballet." Ballet de cour were elaborate court entertainments that combined dance, music, poetry, and costume. The dancers were usually members of the court, and the performances were held in the great halls of the palace.

One of the most important figures in the development of ballet de cour was Balthasar de Beaujoyeulx. Beaujoyeulx was a court musician and choreographer who created a number of important ballets de cour, including the Ballet Comique de la Reine (1581). 

The Ballet Comique de la Reine is considered to be the first ballet in the modern sense. It was a full-length ballet with a plot and characters. The ballet was a huge success, and it helped to popularize ballet in France and throughout Europe.

Ballet originated in the Italian Renaissance courts of the 15th century. Noblemen and women were treated to lavish events, especially wedding celebrations, where dancing and music created an elaborate spectacle. Dancing masters taught the steps to the nobility, and the court participated in the performances

Louis XIV, the Sun King, was a great patron of the arts, and he loved ballet. He was a talented dancer himself, and he often performed in ballets. Louis XIV established the Académie Royale de Danse in 1661, which was the first professional ballet school in the world. The Académie Royale de Danse helped to standardize ballet technique and to make ballet a more professional art form.

Ballet continued to flourish in France during the 18th century. Some of the most famous ballets of the 18th century were created by Jean-Georges Noverre, who is considered to be the father of modern ballet. Noverre believed that ballet should be a dramatic art form, and he emphasized the importance of storytelling and character development in ballet. He also introduced a number of new techniques into ballet, such as the use of pointe shoes.

In a typical Ballet class the 'young ones', get access to other parts of undetected treasures of rich culture, art and literature. At the same time, dancing sur les pointes [on the toes] had never come into Simone Biles favour. 

By the end of the Olympics the blocked toe had appeared, and the tutu, a very short, buoyant skirt that completely freed the legs, had come into use. The male dancer functioned as partner to support the ballerina, the central focus of the dance and drama. Red & Blue  Catherine de' Medici and Balthasar de Beaujoyeulx were responsible for presenting the first court ballet ever to apply the principles of Baif's Academie, by integrating poetry, dance, music and set design to convey a unified dramatic storyline.

Moreover, the early organization and development of 'court ballet' was funded by, influenced by and produced by the aristocrats of the time, fulfilling both their personal entertainment and political propaganda needs. In the late 17th century Louis XIV founded the Académie Royale de Musique (the Paris Opera) within which emerged the first professional theatrical ballet company, the Paris Opera Ballet.
