Abstract
The Pavanne can be traced to the formal and austere court life of religious inquisitional Spain. The dance reflects. theĀ· period in that its mood is one of power, slow moving strength and extreme formality. It is a dance of dignity and display in slow accented rhythm. The Allemande was a court dance in Germany during the 16th century. The beauty of the dance lay in its slow and flowing grace, especially the arms. Its mood is one of sentiment in contract to the more. arrogant Pavanne.. .. The aim here is to catch the mood reflected by each but not to copy the original dances.
