I wish people danced like this today
Some stii do. There are English Regency + Jane Austen style events in England,
US, etc. One can contact websites of Jane Austen Society. Jane Austen House, Chawton House in UK, &
Jane Austen Society of N America in US.
Enjoy!! Good luck !!!
It's basically a Strathspey in period costume. So every country dance does these, albeit in modern clothes.
This is the one I was looking for! For my writing. I wanted my characters to do some kind of lined up dancing with clapping and didn't know what to call it. Very helpful. Thank you for uploading!
No wonder they needed dance masters!
Couples dance is a defining feature of West European civilization.
Also in Mexico, C+ S America, Caribbean
etc. as result of trade + colonial.invasion
later free contacts between dancers on
both sides of Atlantic. like Argentine tango, Cuban salsa, Brazilian samba
going to N America + Europe, US rag
time +swing music dances went to D America & to Europe, etc in exchange for
waltz, mazurka, polka, schottische, galop, etc. + groups of couples-- country
dances & Quadrilles & on & on !!
The interpretation of this dance is indeed from the 1970's and most audiences are familiar with that. Most dances of this time were danced in triple minor, but it makes it a little dull to display in this format, hence the duple minor interpretation. All our ladies are dressed in fashions taken from original patterns and fashion plates from the early 19th c.
Amazing!
That is the Simons 1970 reconstruction...
Прекрасно!
So basically a Strathspey in period costume? Pretty clothes right enough.
What music is used in the first dance and the third? If you could let me know that would be fantastic! Thanks!
The first piece is The Duke of Kent's Waltz (1802) the third is The Comical Fellow (1776) Both are available on commercial recordings.
