Regency

The atmosphere of a reputable, exciting epoch comes to life again in 2014 – we hope to welcome you in our 2nd Jane Austen Ball. This unique event is one of its kind in Hungary, and the Prónay Castle – one of the few fortunate noble residences in the county of Nógrád to see a revival –, with its elegant interiors, antique furnitures, nostalgic but vivid venues is the ideal location of this exceptional event.

The 200 Dances Project

 

 

 

 

At RegencyDances.org we have researched almost 400 English Regency dances from their original documents and animated them and provided dance descriptions and, where possible, a video of them being danced.  

However - even though the dances and the music scores may exist, not everyone has access to musicians for all those practice sessions learning the dances before a ball or a display.  We have all suffered from this problem.  What we need is more authentic recorded music..

 

Um einen breiten Tänzerkreis anzusprechen wird die­ser Kurs in zwei Gruppen durchge­führt:

Markus Lehner wird die fortgeschrittenen Tän­zer betreuen: Auf dem Programm stehen eine Auswahl von Tänzen aus den Büchern von Chivers, Wilson und anderen Sammlungen des frühen 19. Jahrhunderts.

Ein Schwerpunkt wird dabei auf der Erarbeitung der Tänze mit dem zeitgemäßen Schritt­material liegen.
