THE MUSIC: John Playford published his first edition of THE ENGLISH

DANCING MASTER at the age of 28. The majority of the tunes presented

here are from that first edition of 1651. The melodies taken from this collection

of 104 dances have been compared with a facsimile of the original

manuscript; in each case the original key and musical form have been retained.

With the issue of this album, many of these tunes are recorded for the

first time.
