Traditional Swedish Dances
GÅNGLÅT / SNOA (Walking Tune)
Named for a village near Rättvik, Dalarna, Sweden, Gärdeby Gånglåt is
without a doubt the best known fiddler's air in Scandinavia. As functional
music, it has been used for march or promenade for generations. In recent
times such walking tunes have also served as music for the pivot dance, snoa.
The five Dalaspelmän (country fiddlers from Dalarna: Nils Agenmark, Gösta
Bäckström, Paul Bäckström, Anders Sparf, and Pål Olle) featured with Gunnar
Hahn's orchestra impart the steady, compelling, yet relaxed rhythm
characteristic of the native music of Sweden's "folklore province."
ENKEL ENGELSKA (English Dance)
This pleasant tune is suitable for a variety of circle and set dances which
were originally introduced to the coastal lands of northern Europe by
English sailors in the eighteenth century when Britannia ruled the waves.
Perhaps reflecting characteristic Swedish reserve, the musical temperament
is more restrained than that found in British and North American
counterparts.
FAMILIE SEKSTUR (Family 6/8 Dance)
Here is the archetypical Danish folk dance mixer. Both the steps and figures
are familiar to square dancers: "Into the center and back," "Grand
right-and-left," and "Swing your partner." Nevertheless, there exists a
distinctively happy-go-lucky quality so characteristic of the dances of
Denmark.
TOTUR II (Two-Figure Dance Number 2)
The Danes seem to have a never-ending store of fun dances, all utilizing
essentially the same steps and figures, but differing in arrangement so that
each dance has a spirit and identity of its own. This good-natured big
square from Sjælland, captivating in its very simplicity, is made to order
for beginning dancers.
TI-TI-TYY JENKKA ("Birdcall" Schottische)
The song of the European titmouse was the inspiration for this tune,
composed in typically Finnish minor mode by well-known old-time dance
composer and orchestra leader, Orvokki Ramsi. Jenkka is the Finnish word for
schottische. The dance itself, found in Sweden as well as in Finland,
appears to be of relatively recent origin, and it is a lively, painless way
to learn the schottische step!
TROMMELVALSEN (The Drumming Waltz)
The Danish propensity for whimsy comes through in this three-couple set
dance incorporating arch-and-under action. The drum-like cadence in the
lively figure portion is akin to the steps of the pre-Viennese period
trippevals (running-waltz), while the more dignified individual partner
dance is a Tyrolervals (Tyrolean Waltz), a common chorus figure in Danish
folk dances.
ISLENZKUR SKOTTIS (Icelandic Schottische)
Much of Iceland's indigenous music and dance traditions virtually
disappeared centuries ago in the wake of strict religious bans. What remains
is predominantly of later Danish origin. This schottische was taught by a
folk dance team from Reykjavik. The tune, an old folk song, was learned by
Gunnar Hahn from an Icelandic couple in Stockholm.
