Baroque Dancer

 

Interview – August 6, 2016

Marie-Nathalie Lacoursière is a Baroque dancer and artistic director of Les Jardins Chorégraphiques, a Baroque dance company based in Montreal.  I interviewed Lacoursière right after her performance at the Vancouver Bach Festival in the program Anna Magdalena Bach – Home Suite Home – a presentation of music contained in two notebooks that Johann Sebastian Bach gifted to his wife, Anna Magdalena.  Lacoursière performed five Baroque dances to accompany the music.
