Summary Featuring the history and actual music of the early sword dances of England, this volume discusses the rich origins of the art. Recorded throughout world history, sword dances are choreographed mock battles that generally end with a “killing” of one of the performers. Most sword dances include performers who dance solo around the weapons and mock battle dances in which performers simulate ongoing swordfights.
