In thinking to his past, Chateaubriand said that anyone who did not live before the French revolution did not know "La douceur de vivre." This sweet existence was a leap of faith, illustrated by Fragonard and Watteau and depicted in the music of Couperin, Mondonville, and Clérambault. Four Nations takes you to this magical and exquisite world as we all enter into winter.
