Re: Period Dances




Poster: Andrea Hicks <maridonna@worldnet.att.net>

As was previously mentioned, the Saltarello is a dance style.  There is
documentation for this dance to be found at the homepage of Ld Samuel Piper
(from Ansteorra) at http://www.onr.com/user/steveh/index.htm    His works are
listed under the Bryn Gwlad playlist.

One of his books (Reniassance Songs and Dances) lists 'Ronde VI' from
Danserye 1551 by Tylman Susato as having a variation called "Saletrelle"

Another book (Italian Dances of the Reniassance) lists Saltarello's as
variations for "Ballo Anglese", "Ballo Francese", "Tedesca", and "Ungaresca".

Ld Piper is an excellent resource for period music (and his site is fun to
read as well).

In service to the dream,
Ottavio Todisco
Barber-surgeon, flute player
and Chronicler for the Canton of Attillium, Atlantia
