GALANTERIES PARISIENNES
(English follows)

Casanova écrit à la fin du XVIIIe siècle :  Je n'ai trouvé la vraie sociabilité que chez les Français, car eux seuls savent que la plaisanterie fine et délicate, en arrimant la conversation, fait le charme de la société.  Comme il était courant à l'époque de comparer à une conversation entre personnes civilisées les formes de la musique de chambre, cette subtile légèreté qu'est la galanterie trouve son pendant musical dans des compositions très diverses, sonates et concertos où dialoguent les protagonistes instrumentaux dans une séduction mélodique qui n'exclut en rien la fermeté et l'équilibre de la composition.

//

At the end of the 18th century, Casanova wrote: I only found real sociability among the French: for they alone know how to joke; and fine, subtle, joking, enlivening conversation is what makes up the charm of society. It was common at the time to compare the forms of chamber music with those of conversation between civilized persons; and so galanterie, subtle, light, chivalrous, and flattering remarks, found its musical equivalent. In a diverse range of compositions, sonatas and concertos, the dialogue between instruments becomes a melodic form of seduction, without in any way precluding the rigor and balance of the composition.
