yawn. sure you did. we're discussing the music not the dance aspect!

and clearly a nececessary addendum to all entries is at least "the music that accompanies such a dance" (this isn't really up for debate as reels, jigs etc are everyday terms for tune types in itm)

my point isthat it should now be taken furthr and be "the music that accompanies such a dance or has been historically asscociated with such a dance meter"   or something more elequent to the same effect
