So, what's wrong with "Horse's Bransle"?  (Well, other than the
possibility that it might be deadly dull?)

For what it's worth, I came up with a variation of Horse's that we
kind of liked.

(THIS IS AN A-HISTORIC CHANGE TO THE DANCE!!)

The second part of the dance (Stamp-stamp, single R, turn L with
double L) is interesting enough.  But the first part (double L, double
R until even the mildly autistic dancers get bored) is just tedious.

So, here's what we did.

The first double L double R is as normal.

The second time, the lead couple does ...something... and back. They
might do three little kicks at the end.  It can be a diagonal, double
L and back out, and then R and back in.  It can be a double L and
switch places, and then a double R and switch back.  It can be a turn
L with a clap at the end, Korobushka-style. Whatever. Something.

The third time, they repeat their move, and the second couple follows suit.

The fourth time, al three couples dance the variation.

Since the lead man changes each time, there are new ideas about what
to do.  That first double L, double R is usually spent in hurried
negotiations.  The lead woman needs to be pretty on-her-toes.

--Christian

That sounds interesting. We might try the "Hurried Negotiations" variant when we
get more advanced. Regarding the "Korbushka clap,"  one of the other members of
the Barony is supposed to teach Korbushka next time. She's from the Outlands and
apparently, they danced Korbushka frequently out there. I can hear a "Korbushka
clap" when I'm playing music, but I'm usually not looking up enough from the
music to register a visual. That shall soon change.

I (and many others who may speak on thier own) have been working for a long time
to get this 1920's broadway take on a Russian folk dance out of the popular
vernacular of the European Dancer in Calontir and the Known World. Adding it to
your local repertoire and introducing it to new folks debilitates a cause near

do with living history of our period as the Electric Slide. Please consider this

OK Tsire  - you make a good point with Korbushka. The Stupid Squire Dance/Ly
Bens shall replace Korbushka for next dance practice. I was trying to fill up
time with Korbushka since we don't know that many dances and one of our members
already knew it. Sara Sophia couldn't make it last time to teach the new dances
you taught her at Crown. Murdoch led ALL the dances in her place though. He even
told the group how much dancing helps with footwork, which thereby improves
fighting technique!

Also, my friend, who used to live in the Outlands (Unser Hafen), said she used
to dance something called a "Circle Waltz." I asked her to hum the tune. She
couldn't remember it, but said it sounded like something you'd hear in a Chinese
restaurant. Do you know what she could be talking about?

  Thanks,

Emelye

Emelye,

I understand where you're coming from. Thanks to you and to Murdoch for putting
so much energy into this. I hope that your friend will continue to explore
period dancing while she is in Calontir.
As for the Circle Waltz....it's most likely a Laendler. The Laendler is a
polka/waltz country dance style that formalized over time into the waltz we know
today. Documentation and woodcuts presumably depicting this dance appear to be
from the 1800's or later. The interesting trivia about this one is that those
who did it in the SCA used the same music and polka waltz chorography that you
can see bits and pieces of in the father daughter dance and ballroom scenes of
the movie The Sound of Music. Extra out of period bonus points there - folk
dance, 1800's, AND from a movie! WOW! :)

Keep up the good work guys!
Tsire

Emelye,

I'm sorry I didn't make it last time.  Playdate plans got changed too late for
me to make other arrangements for Nathaniel.  Next time I may just try bringing
a 6 year old and see if he likes dance. :-D

I will try to have Ly Bens worked up for next time. :-)  I learned so many
dances at Crown, I'm not sure I can remember them all. :-)

Quite correct, however any group member with a YahooID can upload
files to the group website (link at the bottom of each message)

The current settings for the group are:

Files/Photos:   Members (upload/modify/download files)
Links: 	   Members (create/modify/delete links)
Database:  Members (members can access Database feature)
Polls: 	   Members (create/modify/vote in polls)
Members:  Moderators view (moderators can view profiles/change settings)
Calendar:  Members (create/modify/delete events)
Promote:  Members (get sign-up boxes)

I can upload files for anyone who doesn't have or doesn't want a
YahooID :-)

What are people doing about music for their classes?
It suddenly occured to us last night that although we have been using the
ipod - the speakers require electricty and that doen't work for Lilies.  We
no longer have a boom box although I still have the CDs.
Does someone have a box they can loan for all the classes (Azenari, Cathus,
Arina and myself all use my ipod, and Tsire uses an identical set up)? Or
should I go out and buy a cheapo box for lilies?

What are people doing about music for their classes?
It suddenly occured to us last night that although we have been using
the
ipod - the speakers require electricty and that doen't work for Lilies.
We
no longer have a boom box although I still have the CDs.
Does someone have a box they can loan for all the classes (Azenari,
Cathus,
Arina and myself all use my ipod, and Tsire uses an identical set up)?
Or
should I go out and buy a cheapo box for lilies?

Thank you Conrad/Tsire.  I'll count on your boxes for ipod hookup then.
Thankyou. Thankyou.  I really didn't want to drag CDs and a box out anouther
year.

Thanks all for the new information about the European dance classes!
I have entered all that I've received so far.

Also, I received information from Rahil (thanks Rahil!) about the
Middle Eastern dance classes and events, and that information is
entered as well.

If any of you can and wish to add some descriptive copy about a
particular class (i.e. information regarding what the class is about),
I'll be more than happy to add it if you'll send it to me (or post it
here.)

Here's the link again:

Tsire,

Hello there.  How are you?

Yes, I am waiting until the last moment to get this together. We have dance
tonight. :-)  But if it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would get done. :-D

What are the doubles and singles you mention here? Are singles one step to one
beat?  Are doubles two steps to one beat?  Are they like the pavane step -
single=step, together and double=step, step, together?

Thank you for your help,
Sara Sophia

I suggest



Ly Bens Dystonis (English 1400's)

for Couples



Single, Single, Double

Lord Forward a Double as Lady Back a Double

(Lord turn about to face Lady)

Both Forward a Double to meet Right shoulders

Both Continue Forward a Double

(Both turn about to face each other)

Both Forward a Double to meet Left shoulders

(Lady turn about to face head of hall)

(Take Hands) Step away from you partner, Step toward your partner

Turn out (Lord Counterclockwise, Lady Clockwise)





It's fun to think of this dance as a tumultuous relationship.

You start out walking together, move apart, come together, move apart, come
together, connect, struggle out then in, spurn one another and begin again. :)

Single = A step (first single is with left foot, second with right, etc) with
the other foot then coming together (So "Step, Together)  This should take two
beats (one for the step, and one for the Together)

Double  = Step Left, Step Right, Step Left, Bring right foot together with left.
The next double (if doing two in a row) would be Step Right, Step Left, Step
Right, Together.  This should take four beats, (one for each step and then one
to bring them together).

Hope this helps.

Hi

OK this is a bit of an oddball dance

Simple Explanation
Singles are simple step left and close with the right, step right close
with the left.
A double would be a left, right, left and close (or turn in this dance)
While the single, single, double has the same pattern as a pavane, it's
much more upbeat

As for timing that's trickier. If the music is 4/4 then a single is 2
beats or 1/2 measure.
While a double is 4 beats or 1 full measure. This will vary if the
signature is different.

One tricky thing about the music for this dance is that the last phrase
(the step out, step in, turn)
sounds very much like the first part (the single, single, double),
resist the temptation to start
the next repeat here.


Fuller explanation (ignore if you want)
The Greesly series of dances (which this is one) have been described as
English dances with 'Italian like' steps
They are not English Country Dances.

With this in mind there's more freedom to style the steps. The main
difference is that Italian steps don't
close the trailing foot in a series of like steps. Italian singles are
more like step left, pause; full step with right, pause
Etc. And a double as left, right, left, pause (the 1 beat for the pause
is when the turns to face are done).

Thanks for the explanations so far.  I'm trying to get the steps to work out
with where I think it should end in the music, but keep coming up short.  And
the stuff online that I'm finding is not being very helpful.  I think I'm
looking at stuff that is too scholarly when what I need is someone that says "a
single is a step-close."  I will keep practicing it and see if I can get a speed
that matches the music.  That is always the hardest part about this for me.  I
learn the steps alone and then have to fit them to the music. :-)

Thanks again,
Sara Sophia

Since I accidentally sent this to the list and not to Tsire privately, I

would be grateful to anyone who can help me with this. :-)



Sara Sophia - who apparently needs more coffee ;-)

Note number in (), these are the beats each line takes)
i.e. single = 2, single = 2, double = 4 so (2,2,4)

there may also be a short intro in the music, I don't specifically
remember.

I can get the dance to end where I want it to about 50% of the time.  I don't
know what the difference is between it not ending right and it ending right. :-)
I'm treating the music as 4/4 time.  Sigh, all I can do is keep working on it
until 7 tonight. :-)

Thanks so much,
Sara Sophia
