About this listen

 In which the Comte de Fontaine, a steadfast royalist navigating the complexities of post-revolutionary France, endeavors to secure favourable matches for his daughters amidst shifting social mores and courtly intrigues, while his youngest, Emilie, reigns as a captivating yet capricious figure of youth and pride within the family’s refined but fractious circle. The scene shifts to the lively Ball at Sceaux, where Emilie, intrigued by a mysterious young man whose noble bearing piques her curiosity, confronts the mingling of high aspiration and rustic gaiety beneath the rotunda’s open roof.
