DOWNLOAD EBOOKDance Legacies of Scotland compiles a collage of references portraying percussive Scottish dancing and explains what influenced a wide disappearance of hard-shoe steps from contemporary Scottish practices. Mats Melin and Jennifer Schoonover explore the historical references describing percussive dancing to illustrate how widespread the practice was, giving some glimpses of what it looked and sounded like. The authors also explain what influenced a wide disappearance of hard-shoe steps from Scottish dancing practices. Their research draws together fieldwork, references from historical sources in English, Scots, and Scottish Gaelic, and insights drawn from the authors’ practical knowledge of dances. They portray the complex network of dance dialects that existed in parallel across Scotland, and share how remnants of this vibrant tradition have endured in Scotland and the Scottish diaspora to the present day. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Dance and Music and its relationship to the history and culture of Scotland.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe enthusiasm with which Scottish gatherings all over the world welcome the strains of a Reel tune or a stately Strathspey is no less marked today than it was in the eighteenth century, when an English visitor to an Edinburgh ballroom noted, 'The moment one of these tunes is played, up they start, and you would imagine they had been bit by a tarantula.' Some of the dwindling antique treasure of music and dance is now being recovered, including such dances as the weird 'Carlin of the Mill Dust' and the fascinating 'Hebridean Weaving Lilt' from the Isles. More commonly known are the highland step-dances and the country dances; step-notation and music for four of these are provided in this book. Also included is a bibliography for further study, and four colour-plates showing authentic costumes. Miss Milligan, one of the founders of the Scottish Country Dance Society, played a leading part in the preservation and teaching of Scottish dances. Mr. MacLennan, renowned as an expert of Highland dancing, made a lifelong study of Scottish dances, bringing to light many not hitherto generally known.
