Note from John: Over the 4 days of this Festival we enjoyed dances both from Jane Austen’s day and from movies featuring Jane Austen’s work or life. I’ve ordered the dances we enjoyed by the half-century in which the instruction source were published. Within that category I’ve grouped dances by form, and after each underlined title I have mentioned, if relevant, the screen production in which the music was heard (using abbreviations: e.g. BJ is Becoming Jane). If it has not been in a movie there’s no code. Lastly, I have mentioned the occasion during the Festival when the dance was taught or led. All the music that was played for the dances is that which was specified in period sources as appropriate for the dance, except for the music that went to our only 1830s dance, the 3 person waltz ‘La Triolet’, and the waltz medley displayed on Thursday evening—for which I used my own tunes.
