A comprehensive introduction by Ellis Rogers offers comments on the interpretation of the quadrille. Remarks on the interpretation of the music are by Meryl Thomson of Green Ginger.
This CD of PDF images contains thirteen Sets of Quadrilles, composed in the early nineteenth century by J. Paine. Over 300 hundred pages offer: first, the dances in their original format; the music, transcribed for legibility, indicates the repeat sequences; the original dance instructions for each quadrille are given, in considerably abbreviated form, below the music.

Nachdem die Revolution verstummte und Napoleon Frankreich und Europa "einte", erfüllten rauschende Feste Säle und Salons, und bei beschwingten Tänzen und vergnüglichen Spielen vertrieb man sich die Zeit.
Zu kurz war die Zeit zwischen den Kriegen und Kämpfen, umso fröhlicher der "Tanz auf dem Vulkan".
Lieven Baert, Gent, wird uns vom 16. - 19. Mai in die aufregenden Tänze und Formationen der Epoche einführen.
Im Anschluss an diesen Kurs findet ein Frühlingsspaziergang & Picknick sowie ein Ball im Stil des 19. Jahrhunderts statt.
