The Traditional Morris Dance Music Album (CD)
Supposedly an own form of the morris dance, possibly also an independent dance form is the English Morris Dance (English Morris Dance). The Morris dance is danced by individual groups, so-called so-called "Sides", danced. Originally the dancers were exclusively men, but in the meantime there are also mixed but now there are also mixed sides in which women also dance. The revival of Morris dancing in the 20th century is due to the efforts of English Folklorists such as Cecil Sharp, Maud Karpeles and Mary Neal, who recorded the dances and music and recorded and revived the tradition of Morris dancing. The starting point of the "Morris Revival" is generally considered to be December 26, 1899. (Wikipedia) Musicians Chris Bartram (fiddle) and Keith Holloway (accordion) are both based in Abingdon, Berkshire, one of the few places where the dance has been preserved and is still practiced preserved and still practiced. For the Northwest sounds on the album, they received support from Dave Townsend, Charles Spicer, Phil Humphries (all part of the Mellstock Band) and Charlie Marsden.
