So many moves and steps! Fun to watch - though I pity the woman who ever would consent to dance anything like this with me.

Watching again after a long interval . . . The music has the sound of John Philip Sousa, many of whose marches can be danced to. The brass band is another possible indicator of the March King's work. Irrespective of who composed it, this quadrille is fun to watch - and to listen to. Well done.

So many complicated steps. But I'd love to learn. I'm a big historical romance reader and read about balls from this time period. Dances like this one were the height of fashion then. If you couldn't do it you were not deemed suitable for marriage. But that's just in the books. I'm not sure if it's exactly true.

I think being able to dance was considered an accomplishment, and ladies of higher classes were expected to have mastery over dancing. Of course, every class had their own forms of dance.

You can start by contacting Dancetime Publications and looking at their instructional dance books and DVDs plus music CDs for many dance eras including 19th century 1 couple and. groups of couples. One also needs to find historical dance groups to join Good luck groups of coupljes

@animangaai I'm doing research too, and this has been one of the most helpful videos I've found to help me understand the character of the quadrille. I'm trying to compose one as part of a set of 18th and 19th Century dances I'm writing. The form is complex, with any number of variations, as usual (this is slight variation on the traditional form, in fact), but still it's great to see the dance executed so professionally and artfully. Thanks to Pablossos for posting it!

@SpeedyNeutrino43 That's exactly right. American square dancing derived rather directly from the quadrille. Practically the entire dance shown here could be called by a modern square dance caller.

The dancers are wearing empire/regency fashion, probably fashion around 1820s. So it should be an early 19th century ball dance

@rebeccafriedman6420 3 жыл бұрын

Square dancing is pretty old itself! Take a look at Playford's English Dancing Master - first edition 1651 - specifically the 8-person squares like Dull Sir John, If All The World Were Paper, Fain I Would, Hyde Park, and so on. I don't know if they quite count as square dancing - they might, or might be ancestors, depending on how you define the term - but they're pretty close. It's quite possible they're even ancestral to the quadrille! (Or at least, watching this video I'm recognizing a lot of figures - the casting figure from Fain I Would, for example.)

@hathers12, The clothes are from the 1890's. You can tell from the large sleeves and the wide bottoms of the skirts. It must be nearer the end of the decade since the bustles while present, are far less noticeable than on earlier dresses.

Referring to the ladies' dresses. The quadrille has been around since before even that.

@Kiyotea.clarinet 12 жыл бұрын

I'm sorry, but I strongly disagree with you. And actually, I agree with gryphon. The dress style lends itself to being 1890's, because of the leg 'o' mutton sleeves and the more A-line skirts. If you like, you could look up some 1890s fashion plates in the image search, I think you'll see quite a similarity. However, I *don't* think that's the point of the video. I believe the video was made to display the dancing style, and not the clothing.

It's probably based on 1890s- the larger sleeves. Early 20th would have had a more fluid form and sometimes even sleeveless. Mind you, this isn't entirely accurate anyways.

country dance is quite another thing. The matrix is surely the same all over Europe, but each country has then developed a different style based on their own traditions and pleasure. Ex. Scottish country dances, set dancing in Ireland, but they all originate from the "Contraddanze" therefore translitterated into Country dances... the countryside has really nothing to do with them at all...

There were also quadrille that were composed to use as travelling step for all couples to go around the square waltz, mazurka, polka, schottische, gallop etc sometimes only 1 step for whole dance while others were composed to use all of those different steps in 1 song.
