By Henry Purcell and traditional tunes. Composed by Traditional and Henry Purcell. Arranged by Nina Kopparhed. This edition: pdf, streaming. 19th Century, Classical, Film/TV, Folk, Traditional. 39 pages. Arcantora Publications #1089261. Published by Arcantora Publications (A0.1514771).
A selection of popular Social Dances in common use during the 18th and 19th Centuries, perfect for bringing a bit of a Costume Drama/Bridgerton vibe to your evening or event. The tunes have been arranged for String Quartet, and repeats have been added, as if they will be used for dancing.
Contents (the tunes are often known under several different names): 1) Trad.: The Comical Fellow 2) Purcell: The Virtuous Wife/The Dutch Skipper 3) Anon: Flirtation/Le Cor de Chasse 4) Anon: La Riswic (from The Gautier Collection) 5) Trad.: Le Pistolet/Smith's Rant/May Day
These were all premiered at a weekend of costume balls in March 2024, where they were used for dancing: dance instructors taught the participants the dances, and the floor was then filled with dancers, with a caller helping with the steps.
However, the arrangements work equally well as background music, to give the atmosphere of an 18th/19th Century ballroom to any event.
We hope that you'll be enjoying these arrangements and thank you for your interest.
