In music and It will he equally Interesting to tiaoe the Influence of the folk dance and dance rhythms In the same man ner, Even such large works as sym-i phonics have employed the folk dunce in the third movement, to say nothing of the countless smaller works which have followed the dance form. Many of our music memory selections are splendid examples of this type of music. Thus: The Suite in 1) Major, an example of old clas sical dance form, from which we have studied the air for O string: "I’raeludium." based on the rhythm of the Spanish habanera; "Minuet,” a dance form used by many of the masters: "Young Prince and the Young Princess,” the second theme being a dance movement written in waltz time; "The Bee” and the "Minute Waltz’' also follow the waltz form: "Shepherd's Hey” Is based on an old English Morris Dance; "Bolero In D Major” follows the rhythm of the characteristic Spanish bolero; the ‘‘Farandole” Is an old traditional French dance. So it seems very much worth while for us to learn the origin of some of the dance forms and note their im portance In the realm of musical composition. Dance Rhythms The history of dancing and dances enters prominently into musi cal development and many of the classical forms of the music of to day had their origin In dance music. The earliest dancing was a little more than pantomimic action which told the story of adventure, or com bat. by means of more or legs rhythmical gestures. A rude accom paniment was sometimes used which did little but mark the time for the dancers and when we read of the dances In the scriptures we find the clapping of hands, rhythmic beating of the tambourine, or clatter of the timbrel to guide th» dancers and the singers. However, it Is not until the mlddje ages that we find any real connection betwpen these dances and the modern forms of music. The dances of the nobles, dignified, slow walking dances, and the merry, wild, hilarious dance of the peasantry afforded the contrast necessary to good musical form, and musicians soon began to combine the two. Then to preserve* the symmetry they not on Ip interwove two contrasting dances but concluded by a return to the first movement and gave rise to the three.part form so largely used by modern classical compoaera. French. German, and Spanish dances lent their Influence, and In the Sixteenth century we find Italian composers combining three or four different dances In a cycle form which In turn progressed to the dance aulte, which together with the opera overture, was the beginning of the symphony. Four movements were usually con sldered necessary In every suite—the allemande, courante, saraband, and glgue, all written in the same key. 1. The allemande la a dance of German origin written In 4 4 time and moderately rapid tempo. 2. The courante Is one of the oldest French figure dances and was very fashionable during the sixteenth century. This dance Is written In 3 2 time with rather rapid running movement. There Is a strong contrast between first movement, (allemande) a simple tune and somewhat heavy character, and the lighter courante with Its Im pression of energy and vivacity. 3. The saraband, the third move ment. also written in 3 2 or 3 4 time Is etately serious dance and brings the listener back to a less frivolous state of mind. Thle dance is of Moorish origin and as popular Jb France and Knglnnd as In Spain. 4. The gtgue, known In many lands. Is a hearty, rapid and rollick ing dance, will ten usually Iti 3 8. 6 8, or 3-4 time, and leaves the listeners In a happy mood. The gavotte and the bourse are often Introduced between the last two movements of the suite. The dance music Is of course writ ten lo correspond to the regular steps of the dancer, hence the rhythm is very regular. Much of the music written iin dance form, however, la not Intended as an accompaniment to dancing and In it we commonly find irregular rhythms, for the composer is not restricted and can employ vari ations impossible when obliged to consider the steps of the dancer. As a result of this freedom we have the Idealized dance forms such as we find in the works of Mozart, Haydn, Schu bert, Chopin, Beethoven and AVeher. Minuet In' Symphony. Of these idealized dance forms the minuet is the most Importiuit. It Is written in 3 4 or 3-8 lime. With Haydn the minuet lost some of Its stateliness and hecame less solemn. As we learned in our study of the sym phony, Haydn was the first to intro duce the minuet into the symphony, and the scherzo (coming from the Italian meaning to joke) is the out growth of the minuet and was used in the symphony first by Beethoven. The bolero, a characteristic dance of Spain, is usually written in 3 4 time. The dancer accompanied the steps of the dance with castanets and the rhythm of these instruments gradu ally became a part of the music. The Polish polonaise is supposed to have sprung from an old court dance or promenade. Today, as a dance, the polonaise Is of little interest, but It has been a favorite form with mnny Instrumental composers and has even been used by vocal composers in parts of Italian operas. The rhythm Is very marked, sometimes almost martial, and again It is so treated as to cre ate a dreamy, rather melancholy, composition. These characteristics ate particularly true of Chopin's polon aise, in which he depicts the strug cles. court splendor and the triumphs of his country, f'hopln has given life and spirit to the old polonaise form. The saltarello and the tarantella are two well-known danees which come from Italy. The saltarello 1* of Roman origin and mm»« from the Katin "saltare.’’ meaning “to Jump. It was danced by two persons, with a quirk hopping step, the time increas ing as the danre proceeded. The ideal ized form of the saltarello. a* well as the Idealized form of the minuet and other dances, are found In symphonies and other instrumental classical works. The tarantella Is in 6 8 time, gradu ally increasing in speed as the dancers continue, and the music corresponds with the hilarity and mirth of the performers. Pong, castanets, or tam bourines are used to accompany It, and both melody and rhythm are well deflped. The Modern Dance. Among modern society dance* the waltz is on# of the most important and of tli# most obscure origin. The name |s at least German and Hie Ger mans have generally claimed It as on# of their product Iona. The French composers in using this dance in 3 4 time give it the French spelling. ■ \alse." In musical form the waltz Is entirely different from other dances and Is not as capable of high develop ment, hut works of lasting charm have licet) written in waltz form. Weber was one of the first composers to idealize the waltz form, as is in ins "Invitation to the Dance." Among the waltzes which followed In this Idealized form the best will he found in the works of Chopin and Itubenstein. The elder Johann Strauss was the first to give specific titles to waltzes (e. g. "The Blue Danube Waltz") and under the members of the Strauss family and une or two other contemporary com posers, the form of the dance waltz music we now have has become fixed.
