The Washington Post: Mitsuko Uchida at the Music Center at Strathmore

chained_bear Usage on chaconne. Also... "In a treatise from the late sixteenth century condemning public entertainments, Juan de Mariana considered the sarabande 'so lascivious in its words, so ugly in its movements, that it is enough to inflame even very honest people.' In the 1590s in Spain, a public performance of the sarabande was punishable by two hundred lashes. By 1606, however, it had been sufficiently tempered to be included in books of guitar music, and by 1610 the sarabande was a dance craze throughout Europe."
