Description

Six New French Country Dances, Viz La Zelia, La Nathalie, La Corra, La Brillante, La Ronde du Tems, L'Amoureuse. With their Proper Figures as Performed at the Opera in Paris, Arranged for the Piano Forte, With an Accompaniment for the flute (ad lib). Composed & Respectfully Inscribed to The Rt Honble Viscountess Castlereagh, by F.J. Klose.This is the first of two collections of French Country Dances issued in London by Klose either in 1815 or early 1816, this copy is printed on paper watermarked for 1815. They're essentially a set of quadrilles, but published at a date at which the term Quadrille had yet to become prevalent in London. Many of the figures are readily identified as being shared with those of the First Set of Quadrilles as issued by Edward Payne (and others).Suggested arrangements of the dances are animated here:La Zelia: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2030La Nathalie: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2031La Corra: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2032La Brillante: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2033La Ronde du Tems: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2034L'Amoureuse: https://www.regencydances.org/index.php?wL=2035For more information on early English quadrilles see https://www.regencydances.org/paper011.php#later , for Figure Dancing see https://www.regencydances.org/paper023.php#figure, and for the First set of Quadrilles see https://www.regencydances.org/paper021.php .
