Victorian Quadrilles; Long Island, NY (Sunday, Sept. 21, 2008)

I will be teaching a workshop on 19th-century quadrilles in Setauket, New York (Long Island) this weekend for The Long Island Traditional Music Association. I plan to cover two full quadrilles (the mid-century version of The Caledonians and the 1880s Polo) as well as two or three promiscuous figures -- the Star and either the Gavotte or Minuet or both.

The workshop runs from 2:00-5:00pm and will be at the lovely Setauket Neighborhood House (directions on the LITMA site). The dancing will be accompanied by the wonderful music of Marnen Laibow-Koser. Full details are on the LITMA site.

I'd be delighted to meet any Kickery readers who might attend; please make yourself known!
