about

Siege of Ennis (Traditional)

Ennis is a town in County Clare on the west side of Ireland. The Siege of Ennis dance represents the battle when Ennis was besieged. The dance is known as a progressive dance because the dancers move forward to meet a new line of dancers on each repetition of the dance sequence. In 2005, the Guinness Book of World Records recorded the largest ever set dance of The Siege of Ennis with 8,371 participants including Michael Flatley of Riverdance fame.

Huntsman’s Chorous (Traditional)

Although its origins are somewhat obscure, Huntsman’s Chorous seems to have been based on an old Yorkshire Hunting Song called “Owd Towler” and noted authority Peter Kennedy indicates its first publication as 1931 in “Six Dances of the Yorkshire Dales.”
