Notes & Narratives: Terry Moylan
Terry Moylan – “The Establishment of a Tradition: The Quadrille in Ireland”
The Quadrille – a figure dance for four couples – arrived in Ireland in the late 18th century. For over 100 years it retained its original form in the commercial ballroom world, but soon after its introduction it “went native” outside that circuit, where it was not taught or moderated by professional dancing masters, and consequently evolved into multiple forms.
Notes & Narratives will take place at Na Píobairí Uilleann, 15 Henrietta Street, Dublin 1, starting at 8:30pm on Thursday 16th November 2023. Admission is €10 (unwaged / student / retired €5). For those unable to attend in person, it will also be live streamed for free through our channel NPU-TV.
Na Píobairí Uilleann presents Notes & Narratives – a series of monthly performance-based lectures on traditional music, song and dance by some of Ireland’s finest traditional artists.
Supported by The Arts Council.
