Ged Fox | Tune Add: Serpent / Chain Cotillion from Valmai (13) | RE: Tune Add: 'the Serpent Cotillion' from Valmai | 05 Dec 14 |
A quick Google takes it back to 1750 with names including "La Novelle Hollandaise" and "La Louisa." (Wild speculation on my part that the latter name might indicate a connection of the tune with Charles II's mistress, the Duchess of Portsmouth, and, by chance, I generally pair the Chain Cotillion with "Portsmouth") |
