The Gay Gordons is a popular dance at céilidhs and other kinds of informal and social dance in Scotland. It is an "old-time" dance, of a type popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, in which every couple dances the same steps, usually in a circle around the room. The name alludes to a Scottish regiment, the Gordon Highlanders. ==Dance instructions== A standard ceilidh instruction: :Formation: couples in a circle around the room facing anti-clockwise, ladies on the right. :Music: 2/4 or 4/4 march. E.g. "Scotland the Brave", "The Gay Gordons". Repeat ad lib. In order to make the dance progressive, the ladies may leave their partners between bars 12-13 and move to the partner before them in the circle. For Scottish country dancers, the grip in the first eight bars is allemande hold. A live demonstration was performed by the Royal Scottish Country Dancing Society() in 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gay Gordons (dance)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
