"A Summer’s Dance" was a great event. We had music and dancing all afternoon and evening, with breaks between sets and time for dinner and court. That made for a good pace for both musicians and dancers. I hope the dancers had as much fun as the musicians did.
We had a great group of Musicians:
* Estrill Swet (percussion),
* Karl Thorgeirsson (drum),
* Alexandré Marcellus (tambourine),
* Llywelyn Gruffydd (viols da gamba, crumhorn),
* Ysabel de Picard (hammered dulcimer),
* Walter Robin (violin, cello, mandolins),
* Reis ap Tuder (mandolins),
* Toinette de Cambrai (flute),
* Emma de Fetherstan (recorders),
* Vigdis Gráfeldr (harp),
* Xene Theriane (harp, guitar, recorder)
We had enough players that nobody had to carry the melody all the time, which allowed us to change instruments frequently and have a different mix of sound for each dance. This made it fun to play, and hopefully more interesting to hear.
Thank you to the musicians, dance leaders, and Cantons for a wonderful day.

I don’t think there is anyone leading the dancers or musicians. Several teachers are doing dance classes. Bring all of your dance music and we’ll see what happens.
