The Complete Country Dance Tunes from Playford's The Dancing Master
is the classic compendium of English country dance tunes. First
published in 1651 it went through eighteen editions in almost 80
years. In its day it was the most popular collection of its kind
and engendered numerous imitations. The tunes selected by Playford
and his successors were taken from many sources and demonstrate the
extraordinary richness and vitality of popular melody in England
during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. This book brings
together, for the first time under one cover, 535 tunes and their
variants from the eighteen original editions. It provides a fund of
musical material for performers, whether folk musicians or baroque
instrumentalists, and for class and instrumental music teachers. It
is also an invaluable reference book for anyone interested in the
history of English music.
