Thread Name: are new kinds of dance possible?
Subject: RE: are new kinds of dance possible?
I would love to see a revival of dances in 3/2 time. Some of the best tunes ever were in this time signature. Purcell & Handel composed cracking dance tunes in 3/2. Breton dances still exist in this metre. Why have English dances died out I wonder?
