Hunsdon House ~ Square/Hex

Hunsdon House is an English Country Dance first found in Playford's Dancing Master of 1657. It was interpreted by Cecil Sharp in 1912, and reinterpreted slightly in The Playford Ball. It is a non-progressing dance in a hexagon formation. In Modern Western Square Dancing, any suffiently symetrical square can be danced in a hexagon. (See https://fortytwo.ws/~cbaker/hexagon.html ) This provides a comparison between the same English Country Dance done in a square and a hexagon. The tune was published by Playford with the dance. It was performed by Bare Necessities (Earl Gaddis, Mary Lea, Peter Barnes, and Jacqueline Schwab) on the album "At Home". It is used with permission of Country Dance Society, Boston Centre, Inc. https://www.cds-boston.org/ecdc/ This is an early example (probably the earliest) of the "Grand Square" (a modern square dance call). Or at least half a grand square. Playford doesn't call it a grand square but the figures he spells out describe it. The animation plays at 85 counts per minute normally.
