Whether true or not, it sounds like a fun thing to celebrate with dancing! In the spirit of Romance, the dance emphasis will be on Waltz, Tango and Blues.

Dance Instruction Manuals: Video Directory
DHDS publishes historical dance, a leading journal for research in the subject.
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/dihtml/divideos.html

Extractions: Dance Instruction Manuals The following list describes the 75 video clips that illustrate portions of the Dance Instruction Manuals. These clips were selected from two different videotaping sessions. The first was a public event, "Society Dances and Parlor Amusements in The Great Hall," which took place at the Library of Congress on October 15, 1997. The event, which marked the 100th anniversary of the Library's Jefferson Building, featured late 19th-century dances performed in costume against the backdrop of the Great Hall, with music provided by a wind band using period instruments. The second videotaping session took place in the Library's Coolidge Auditorium on April 14, 1998. The videos from this session feature a pair of dancers demonstrating specific dances or movements from selected manuals in the collection. All time periods are represented in these videos. The Table of Contents provides a complete list of the 75 clips arranged by historical period. The entries for individual video clips provide links to the clips themselves and also to the particular pages in the manuals where that dance is discussed. Table of Contents: Renaissance
Ottoman Traders Guild
Ottoman Traders portray an Ottoman Turkish Trading Caravan of the mid1500's. The web site for this Renaissance performance guild offers historical information about mid-eastern music and dance.
http://www.ottoman-traders.com

Extractions: Frame Escape! The Ottoman Traders Guild portrays a Ottoman Turkish trading caravan of the mid-1500's. During the Renaissance, for our purposes 1520 - 1600, trade was happening either through walking caravans traveling from city to city or by merchant ship. Our caravan travels established trade routes starting in Constantinople and traveling "around the known world". We are primarily a Trading Caravan and represent the several different classes: merchant traders, entertainers, fighting men, slaves, and thieves, that would have joined on caravan. Several different nationalities are represented and several different languages spoken. We portray characters in any of these general categories: Merchants, Fighting Men, Entertainers, and Wayfaring Travelers. Out of respect for all faiths, we do not portray any form of religion.

Extractions: Complete Author/Title List ... An American Ballroom Companion presents a collection of over two hundred social dance manuals at the Library of Congress. The list begins with a rare late fifteenth-century source, Les basses danses de Marguerite d'Autriche (c.1490) and ends with Ella Gardner's 1929 Public dance halls, their regulation and place in the recreation of adolescents . Along with dance instruction manuals, this online presentation also includes a significant number of antidance manuals, histories, treatises on etiquette, and items from other conceptual categories . Many of the manuals also provide historical information on theatrical dance. All illuminate the manner in which people have joyfully expressed themselves as they dance for and with one another. The mission of the Library of Congress is to make its resources available and useful to Congress and the American people and to sustain and preserve a universal collection of knowledge and creativity for future generations. The goal of the Library's National Digital Library Program is to offer broad public access to a wide range of historical and cultural documents as a contribution to education and lifelong learning. The Library of Congress presents these documents as part of the record of the past. These primary historical documents reflect the attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of different times. The Library of Congress does not endorse the views expressed in these collections, which may contain materials offensive to some readers.

Mythological Origins And Developent Of Indian Music (Sangeet)
Describes the traditional Hindu origins of Indian music and dance including a historical account of its development.
http://chandrakantha.com/articles/indian_music/myth_origin.html

Extractions: by David Courtney, Ph.D. We must look at mythology to really see the significance that Indian music sangeet has to Indian society. This is easily illustrated in the story concerning its origin. Perhaps the clearest mythological raison de etre Natya-Shastra (Rangacharya 1966) Once, a long time ago, during the transitional period between two Ages it so happened that people took to uncivilised ways, were ruled by lust and greed, behaved in angry and jealous ways with each other and not only gods but demons, evil spirits, yakshas and and such like others swarmed over the earth. Seeing this plight, Indra and other gods approached god Brahma and requested him to give the people a toy (Kridaniyaka), but one which could not only be seen but heard and this should turn out a diversion (so that people gave up their bad ways) Although it was decided to give the celestial art of sangeet to mankind, a suitable human had to be found who was capable of receiving this gift. sangeet had always been in the realm of the demigods ( gandharva . A super-human of superior spiritual ability was required to convey this celestial artform to the world of man. It fell upon the great sage Narada to be the first mortal recipient of this divine art. Through Narada, we are indebted for the presence of classical music.

http://www.zilltech.com/HistoricalArchive.html

Extractions: Of course, you can copy aging videotapes on to new tapes, but each time you do, there is a significant loss of quality. By the third or fourth generation, the copy quality is so degraded it is virtually useless. The solution is to copy these works onto a digital medium. While this still creates some loss in the initial transfer, they can be returned to video without any further degradation. Even digital mediums like CDs and DVDs have a limited lifetime. But the good news is that aging CDs and DVDs can be copied to new disks with no loss of quality - the copy is exactly as the original was.
