The quadrille
The quadrille is a peasant dance of
French origin, in fact its name derives
from the French '' quadrille ''. This dance
contains characteristics of many popular
dances from the period between 700
and 800. The dancers put themselves in
two rows arranged one in front of the
other. The quadrille is divided into five
phases called figurations, and is
prevalently played with folk instruments, usually accordion or organ.
