A facsimile reproduction of Giambatista Dufort's manual, published
in Naples in 1728, with text entirely in Italian. Part one of the
book consists of thirty-four chapters devoted to instructions for
steps required in Italian Baroque dance including pirola
(pirouette), sfuggito (echappe), passo unite (assemble), and
cadente (tombe). Each step is fully described and notated in
Feuillet notation, the dance notation system first published by
French choreographer Raoul-Auger Feuillet in 1700. The second part
of the manual contains six chapters devoted to performance of the
minuetto (minuet) and concludes with a section on the contradanza
(contredanse) and riverenze (bows).
