Step Into The Garden

My Dearest Dancing Friends, a new ball is nearly upon us: a summer ball to be held in Tucson by the Arizona Regency And Victorian Society this coming Saturday.

Your Humble Servant is privy to the set list, and one of the dances we shall partake of is Draper's Gardens, a simple yet genteel diversion in three-quarter time.

Here it is, as performed at The Regency Exhibition Ball in Lansing, Michigan, April 2008.

And another version, danced at the ORS Winter Ball:

You simply must adore the historic attire, if nothing else!

More dances from the set list shall follow. Dance on, my friends!
