Festin royal du mariage du Comte d'Artois : Versailles 1773 (2023)

Music for a royal banquet!. Mid-1770s Versailles was immune to the revolutionary ideas already brewing in Paris. A succession of weddings was arranged to ensure the continuity of the throne, post-Louis XV: the Duke of Berry (1770), the Count of Provence (1771) and, germane to our purposes today, the Count of Artois (1773) - Louis XVI, Louis XVIII and Charles X respectively. It is the “Sinfonie du Festin Royal de Monseigneur le Comte d”Artois Année 1773” we hear here, in superb performances recorded at Versailles itself. (classicalexplorer.com)
