Description

Explore the evolution of Scottish music and dance through this detailed historical study. Scottish Dance Beyond 1805: Reaction and Regulation examines the transformation of dance traditions over the last 200 years. By focusing on sources from Aberdeenshire, this book provides a unique look at a time when dancers had the freedom to adapt steps to their own preference. This ethnographical work tracks the significant shift in how dance was taught and performed. It chronicles the transition from independent dancing masters to the rise of professional, licensed members within regulatory societies. Readers will gain insight into how standardization has impacted contemporary Highland dance and music. Through an examination of specific traditions, such as the Highland Fling, the text assesses how these dances have been altered over time. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the history of Scottish culture, the regulation of performing arts, and the changing landscape of ethnomusicology.
