  • ISBN : 9781576471609

Download or read book The Basse Dance Handbook written by Véronique Daniels and published by Wendy Hilton Dance and Music. This book was released on 2012 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The development of French Basse Dance can be traced through five main phases from c. 1445 to the end of the sixteenth century. There are indeed gaps in this chronicle, but no major hiatus at the beginning of the sixteenth century to match that seen in the musical evidence. This book brings together relevant documents so as to look at the Basse Dance as a whole. It presents seventeen documents that contain choreographies and sometimes other technical details relevant to the Basse Dance as practiced in France and neighboring countries. Each is transcribed, to reflect as closely as is feasible the layout of the original text. And each is supplied with bibliography, introduction, translation and commentary, plus a statistical summary of the composition of its choreographies. A sample page is reproduced from most to illustrate the general appearance of respective texts. The names of all dances described or mentioned are listed in the Index. The character of the music for the Basse Dance and the way that it changed over time are important topics that are essential to this volume."--Publisher.

Book The Carole  A Study of a Medieval Dance

Download or read book The Carole A Study of a Medieval Dance written by Robert Mullally and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The carole was the principal social dance in France and England from c. 1100 to c. 1400 and was frequently mentioned in French and English medieval literature. However, it has been widely misunderstood by contributors in recent citations in dictionaries and reference books, both linguistic and musical. The carole was performed by all classes of society - kings and nobles, shepherds and servant girls. It is described as taking place both indoors and outdoors. Its central position in the life of the people is underlined by references not only in what we might call fictional texts, but also in historical (or quasi-historical) writings, in moral treatises and even in a work on astronomy. Dr Robert Mullally's focus is very much on details relevant to the history, choreography and performance of the dance as revealed in the primary sources. This methodology involves attempting to isolate the term carole from other dance terms not only in French, but also in other languages. Mullally's groundbreaking study establishes all the characteristics of this dance: etymological, choreographical, lyrical, musical and iconographical.
