The Toddler

CH 4

Dance reconstruction: Cécile LAYE
Music for dancing english country dances / Early dance and traditional english tunes and second tunes specially devised for the dance

Longways for as many as will” are the very heart of a country dance ball. Just as « mixers» they draw together people who do not know one another and might not otherwise dance together; but they are far more elaborate. Progressing up and down the set makes the dance interesting; as the dancers repeat the figures, they get over the initial difficulties and eventually take pleasure in recreating each figure with new neighbours. CHESTNUT and the Papa Richard musicians are happy to present this new selection of 17 tunes for dancing. Except for The Toddler and Black Almain, all are “longways duple or triple minor set”, most of them taken from different editions of the Dancing Master.
It was not easy to make a choice among so many enticing possibilities. What should be dropped? We tried to take into account newcomers to the repertoire as well as of experienced dancers familiar with the sequences. We picked up dances wich offer a contrast in atmosphere and rhythm presenting a representative sample of the different sequences used in progression dances. But above all we let ourselves be guided by the beauty and variety of the music, in carefully choosing the instruments which would best enhance the poetry unique to each dance.

1. Enfield Wash - 2. Old Noll's Jig - 3. Black Almain - 4. Mad Robin - 5. Bonny Cate - 6. Slaughter House - 7. Nobody's Jig - 8. Lord Byron's Maggot - 9. The Toddler - 10. Doway - 11.

Fallibroome Collection and A Fallibroome Garden

B 4000

The English Folk Dance and Song Society has re-published, in a single volume, the six country dance collections originally compiled by the late Bernard Bentley, and known as The Fallibroome Collection.

The original books were published in the 1960s and 70s, but have been out of print for many years.

The new edition of The Fallibroome Collection, made by Nicolas Broadbridge, has newly reset tunes and rewritten dance instructions to suit modern practice, while preserving Bernard Bentley's dance transcriptions. An addition to this new collection is digital images of the original eighteenth-century dance collections, from which the Fallibroome dances were selected.

The new collection also includes twelve dances composed by Bernard Bentley in eighteenth-century style, to a set of Contretänze by Beethoven.

Maidean Dubh' an Donais (The Black Sticks Of The Devil)

SKYECD 50

Dr Angus MacDonald's musical influences were formed growing up in Glenuig in Moidart, and from visits to his mother's people in South Uist where the piping tradition was especially strong.

He has also been influenced by the music and Gaelic song he heard in Cape Breton during the years that he lived there. In the fiddle music, especially in the strathspey playing, Angus recognised the rhythms he was brought up listening to, in the songs his father sang and in Gaelic music in general. The words of a song associated with a tune, provide a template which preserves the inherent rhythm and character of that tune over generations.

For this recording Angus has added accompaniment to some tracks. The repertoire is largely traditional but with several entirely new compositions of his own and of his brothers, Allan and Iain.
