10th Anniversary Weekend
APRIL 26, 27 and 28, 2013
The
purpose of this weekend is to celebrate 10 years of English Country Dancingin
Montreal. Participants will embark on a journey to the past
through music and dance in an atmosphere of pleasure and simplicity.
John
Playford is a key figure in English Country Dance. Playford pioneered the publication of English
dances in The English Dancing Master, in 1651. Over time, many other choreographers
from different countries have followed in his footsteps. Many other choreographers
from different countries followed suit, and today Gary Roodman choreographs and
publishes new country dances set to music that respects both their spirit and
tradition.
FOR THIS OCCASION, WE WILL HAVE
THE GREAT PLEASURE TO HAVE WITH US

Arduina Alonzo and Michel Landry will be leading

from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m., a ball will be held with Michel Landry
as the dance master. The ball will be a fitting way to end the English Country Dance
activities organized in 2012-2013. All the dances on the program
will be explained once in French and in English and then danced. The ball is geared toward people with some
experience in English Country Dancing, and therefore attendance at the workshops
held during the year will be to their advantage.
All the calls will be in French and English
