I love the music and I love the dance! I wish that I could have been there to dance with you!
It takes me back to my school days in scotland. I now live in australia.
The Saturday night dance was sooo much fun. Local CWA hall with sawdust sprinkled over the floor. Very fond memories for me from Dundonnell, Mortlake Shire, western Victoria late 60s.
Beautful old dance. I understand the boys brought it back from France To New Zealand at the end of WW1. What a pity no young people in the crowd. Rock & Roll & the Twist finished all these old dances.sadly
Sous les ponts de Paris, followed by La Seine.
Thank you for the names of the tunes. if interested checkout: www.australianfolkmusic.com.au Here the notes for different tunes are listed
Ooh! I’d love to be there, wherever it is.
This was a lot of fun watching!
Sure was!
Beautiful Music but way to fast for this type of Dance.
Yes, I agree, it is a tad too fast. Possibly the musicians are not dancers.
Another very beautigul old style dance where you llearnt to dance as a Couple and be in step not like this rubbish we have today. Great Misic as well.
Beautiful Music so sad that not many new the steps to make it enjoyable to watch. This is a very lovely old style Dance and should neve be forgoten.
Whats the name of these song? Hope someone answer me. Thank you
