    Extractions: setstyle("css/"); Home Diary Dances Photos Articles ... Links Contact us: putEmail("earlydanceherts","btopenworld.com","","class='emaila'"); Herts Early Dance was founded in 2002 as a social club for all those interested in the dances and music of earlier times. Dancers and musicians meet about every three weeks in St Albans. Most meetings are led by either our principal tutor, Anne Daye, or another experienced tutor. The dances are selected from a wide range of styles and periods mainly focusing on the 15th to 17th centuries. Our musicians, The Presence , provide the live music for meetings. The highlight of the year is the May Revels , when members enjoy a feast, entertainments and dancing, and period costume is worn. We warmly welcome new dancers of all standards and seek to offer a light hearted, enjoyable and sociable setting for developing our understanding of historical dance and its context.

84. Accademia Della Danza - Main
    SCA dance group based in Massachusetts. Information about their meetings and activities.  
    http://danza.arberth.com/
    
    Extractions: Accademia della Danza is a group within the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) Barony of Carolingia , in the East Kingdom (Note: all three are external links) If you are interested in dancing-for-dancing (which is not quite the same thing as dancing-for-socializing, although they are certainly not mutually exclusive) then you may be interested in Accademia della Danza. Previous dance experience is not required, all you need is interest. Accademia was founded around 1992 to pursue style practice, reconstruction research, and performance. Different incarnations over the years have concentrated on slightly different mixes of these pursuits, but they still pretty well represent what we are all about: Style: There is far more to dancing than just doing the steps of dances, and that is where style comes in. Style can be approached on several different levels. First, there is the style of the repertoire; you don't dance a sixteenth century French bransle the same way that you dance a 15th century Italian ballo. Next, there is the style of the music; if that 15th century Italian ballo is being played delicately on quiet strings you would dance it differently than if it were being played brightly on loud pipes. Finally, there is the style of mood and partner; you dance differently when you are happy and dancing with someone you wish to be spending time with than when you are annoyed and dancing with someone you have been paired with because your parents are trying to arrange a marriage or business deal.

91. Medieval Dance
    Cheat sheets, step descriptions, and a list of sources for SCA dances, including some from after 1600.  
    http://www.themiddleages.net/life/dances.html
    
    Extractions: Search TheMiddleAges.net This is a collection of cheat-sheets designed to accompany the dance music collection published by Lady Phaedria d'Aurillac. It also includes descriptions of the dance steps , a and a short list of references . This collection is currently incomplete, but the intent is to give a concise description of all the dances, along with the source of the dance. Many dances traditionally danced in the SCA which aren't actually from before 1600 are also given, along with the damning evidence of their origin this collection will hopefully be complete, with the good, the bad, and the ugly. I hope that this collection will be sufficient to allow you to teach a dance once you've seen it danced once and have looked at the cheat sheet. Enjoy. If you know some dances that I don't have, or you have more source information, or if I have any errors, or if I am missing important variations in how things are danced, please let me know.

    Extractions: "Uproariously funny in both conception and performance... " Berliner Allgemeine "It was throu ghout an exciting lesson in cultural history" Der Tagesspiegel "A highlight was the guest appearance of the ensemble Contretemps from London... " Zutphens Dagblad "Unclouded pleasure..." Berliner Zeitung C ontretemps was formed in 1985 by Barbara Segal and Frank Perenboom as a dance duo. Their aim is to present the dance of earlier centuries in a manner that is both lively and entertaining, while still remaining faithful to the original sources. Working from early manuscripts, printed choreographies and contemporary descriptions, Contretemps recreates the dances of past times, with authentic costumes and the music of the period either as a concert performance or integrated into stories to heighten the dramatic appeal. Whether as courtiers at Louis XIV's Palace of Versailles, or Harlequin and Columbine in the pantomimes of 18th century London, their performance is supremely entertaining. I ts experience in recreating historical dance has placed Contretemps in frequent demand as choreographers for large-scale productions. Barbara and Frank worked jointly on the production of Purcell's
