Why this "Borrèia in Auvernia, early 20th century" in local dialect ?

Does anybody know that Auvernia is Auvergne ? Who wrote that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.143.217.186 (talk) 03:11, 1 August 2015 (UTC)Reply


First section edit

After mentioning Chopin and Emmanuel Chabrier as examples of a 19th century composers who wrote bourrées for the piano, the article currently makes parenthetical mention of "the latter's splendid Bourrée fantasque, composed 1891." While I have no doubt that this bourree is quite lovely, I'm not sure that this sort of editorializing belongs in this article; so if no one has any objections, I may remove this JeanneShade (talk) 00:48, 6 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Bourree anglaise edit

What is a bourree anglaise (or angloise) as found e.g. in BWV 1013? (It's not very common but I think there's also one in a work by Handel). What's the difference between that and a bourree w/o qualification? Should I rather ask that at the RD? Contact Basemetal here 08:20, 2 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

No mention of 3 time bourree (bourree 3 temps) edit

Bourrees come in two 'flavors' in French traditional dancing. There is the two time bourree (bourree 2 temps) which the article is focused. There is another type, the 3 time bourree (bourree 3 temps) which I see no mention of. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:3401:DE00:243F:3FEC:15A4:A8A2 (talk) 12:04, 6 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Marguerite_de_Navarre was not the brother of the King of Sweden, and died in 1549 edit

Marguerite_de_Navarre ( likely incorrectly also known as Marguerite de Valois per source The American Universal Cyclopædia: A Complete Library of ..., Volume 9 1882 ) was not the brother of the King of Sweden, and died in 1549, so she did not introduce the dance to the court in 1565. More commonly known Marguerite de Valois was born 1553, died 1615 married Henry of Navarre. This source indicates the dance was introduced to the French Court about 1565 One Thousand Questions and Answers on Musical Theory By Theodore Luther Krebs, 1913, page 201. This source writes in 1892, Marguerite de Valois is said to have introduced the dance. The Living Age ... volume 194, page 651.

The older source 1842, in French, Encyclopédie catholique...: répertoire universel et raisonné des ... From "google marguerite de valois bouree" [1]

describes the introduction of the bourree in 1563 but seems in the form of negative gossip towards Marguerite de Valois instead of non-fiction. This appears to be possibly the form of the source used for the later attributions. Mjjolley (talk) 18:10, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
