  • Bush Dance’ Part 2
    1" " The Evolution of ‘Bush Dance’ part 2 By Peter Ellis Shirley Andrews didn’t formally use the term bush dance until the bicentennial year in 1988. But in a way she was earlier accredited with its use because of her original articles and folk dance descriptions in the Victorian Folk Music Club (VFMC) monthly journal “The Tradition”. This then led to her publication of ‘Take Your Partners’ in 1974, which formalised folk dance in Australia with descriptions and tune references in print. These had generally been made available via the earlier snippets in issues of ‘The Tradition’ (Vic). The late Shirley Andrews in good form Similarly there were details of some dances and tunes from time to time in the Bush Music Club’s (NSW) Singabout by their dancing fraternity. Shirley assembled her descriptions, information and music in the one publication in this subsequent edition of Take Your Partners (later in hard back). Frank Pitt of the VFMC provided most of the tunes Shirley used as these were trialled and in the repertoire of the Port Phillip Band that Frank was by then a key organiser. Some would have gone back to the early Vic. Singabout days from 1955 that Frank Nickels and Joy Durst organised. They arranged tune sheets for Singabout and for their new band simply referred to as the ‘bush band’ (or perhaps the Melbourne Bushwhackers) which they had put together for the return of Reedy River to Melbourne. It was based on the Sydney Bushwhackers after Frank and Joy had visited John Meredith in Sydney and then adopted the official name ‘Billabong’ in Victorian Bush Music Club’s Billabong band, circa 1959.

  • Dance the Highland Fling
    Dance the Highland Fling Liina Flynn | 21st July 2011 When I was growing up, my Scottish grandmother taught me how to dance the Highland Fling. With arms flung above my head, I hopped on my feet moving one leg behind the other as I chanted “shed, behind, before, behind”. The footsteps of the dance were taught to me in an old chant that explained a pattern of fabric weaving and helped me to remember which steps came next. One theory about the Highland Fling is that it originated as a dance of triumph at the end of a battle; another says it was danced on top of a shield before battle, to ward away evil spirits. So, with highland dancing and its militaristic origins on my mind, I took my tartan heart and my (sort of) nimble feet and Scottish country dancing enthusiasts Judy Cook and Andrew Ross. went to learn more about Scottish dancing. When I arrived at a Scottish country dancing class in Lismore, rather than launching into a solo Highland Fling, I was prepared to take part in a group dancing lesson with guided instructions. I had heard about the formal Scottish dance „The Gay Gordons‟, but dancing instructor Judy Cook tells me it‟s a pretty ordinary dance and closer to ballroom dancing than Scottish country dance. Instead, tonight we‟ll be doing dances like Galloping Carousel, Campbell‟s Frolic, Dancing Bees, and Good Hearted Glasgow. Scottish country dancing usually requires at least six or eight people to be able to form a set, but while we‟re waiting for other people to arrive, Judy wants to teach us Domino Five, a dance that only requires five people.

  • Bush Dance As It Was in the Bush! Part 3 – the Romance of Folk
    Bush Dance as it was in the Bush! Part 3 – The romance of Folk By Peter Ellis Western Mail (Perth) Thurs. 28th Jan. 1937 p5 THE BLUE RIBBON. The Bush Dance. DEAR "Martingale,"-"Memories' " recent article on bush dances sent my mind back to the days of the War. I was a schoolboy then on holidays in the wheat belt when a farewell dance was tendered to a soldier. His parents were German, but he was an Aussie. We farewelled him that evening but he never returned. A son of Australia, but he went to fight his parents' people. One can imagine their feelings. However, here's the tale. The horse was harnessed to the sulky by the light of a lantern, which was then turned low and left on the post. Into the night we then drove, and being fresh from the city I could see nothing in the inky blackness. How the driver could see the road puzzled me, but we arrived safely at our destination. The farmyard was lit by a huge fire of logs by the light of which we safely drove around the stray implements to find a good hitching post. Being late- comers the dance had commenced before we arrived. The wall between the bed- room and the dining-room had been pulled down, and a space of about 30 feet by 12 feet was well and truly packed with enthusiastic dancers. Seats round the walls held the few non-dancers, but all who could, made the most of the opportunity and stepped out gaily.
