Canon Galop Quadrille Performance

Performed by the Academy of Danse Libre, at the Stanford Fall Ball. The performance version of W. H. Basley's Galopade Quadrille has four of the five figures (a figure was occasionally omitted at that time) without repeats. The original version repeated each figure, for the sides to do the heads part, with breaks between each figure. The performance name Canon Galop Quadrille refers to the canon dynamic of several figures. The performance version also specifies the setting steps, and gives the ladies an extra turn in the continued exterior ladies chain. Video by Jason Anderson.
