The Pavane: Renaissance Dance

The Pavane performed by Atlanta Historic Dance The word Pavane probably comes from Italian word Padovana which refers to the natives or inhabitants of the Italian city of Padua. The Pavane is a stately and majestic processional dance that was used to open balls until 1650. The dance was used to show off ones finery for the evening. It was very popular in the 16th- and 17th-century in courts around Europe. The pavane was customarily followed by its afterdance, the vigorous galliard, which will be premiering tomorrow. This video is from a performance of Atlanta Historic Dance and Lauda Musicam of Atlanta. In this collaborative concert Lauda Musicam performed early dance music as Atlanta Historic Dane performed.
