The English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS) was formed in 1932 when two organisations merged: the Folk-Song Society and the English Folk Dance Society.〔Karpeles, Maud and Frogley, Alain (2007–2011). ('English Folk Dance and Song Society' ). In: ''Grove Music Online'', Oxford Music Online. Retrieved 2011-10-24. .〕 The EFDSS, a member-based organisation, was incorporated as a Company limited by guarantee (No. 297142) in 1935 and became a Registered Charity (No. 305999) in England and Wales in 1963. The Folk-Song Society, founded in London in 1898,〔Keel, Frederick (1948). ('The folk song society' (1898-1948) ). Journal of the English Folk Dance & Song Society, Vol 5, No 3, December.

Participants included Lucy Broadwood, Kate Lee, Cecil Sharp, Ralph Vaughan Williams, George Butterworth, George Barnet Gardiner,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=G. B. Gardiner, folk song collector )〕 Henry Hammond, Anne Gilchrist and Ella Leather.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ella Mary Leather )〕 The English Folk Dance Society was founded in 1911 by Cecil Sharp. Maud Karpeles was a leading participant. Its purpose was to preserve and promote English folk dances in their traditional forms, including Morris and sword dances, traditional social dances, and interpretations of the dances published by John Playford. One of the greatest contributions that the EFDSS made to the folk movement, both dance and song, was the folk festival, starting with the Stratford-upon-Avon Festival in the 1940s and later festivals in Whitby, Sidmouth, Holmfirth, Chippenham and elsewhere. ==Publications== Since 1936 the EFDSS has published "English Dance & Song" at least four times a year. This has become the longest-established magazine devoted to folk music, dance and song in the country. "English Dance & Song" is aimed at stimulating the interest of the membership of the EFDSS, as well as the wider folk music and dance community. Their regular scholarly publication is "Folk Music Journal" published annually in December, which was formerly entitled the "Journal of the English Folk Dance and Song Society" until 1965. The work continues the earlier journals of the two societies: "Journal of the Folk-Song Society", 1899–1931;〔Dean-Smith, Margaret (1951). ('The Preservation of English Folk Song in the Journal of the Folk Song Society' ). ''Journal of the English Folk Dance and Song Society'', vol 6, no 3 (December), pp 69-76.
