The music and the dance makes me picture a grand Christmas party full of food and festivities with a humongous tree with candles.
No Christmas trees during the renaissance unfortunately
What the . . . man, my leg and abdominal muscles hurt just watching them. They make it look as though they both did not train forever while developing epic muscle, man! That’s always the sign of a good dancer, making it look effortless and easy.
I just foolishly accepted a challenge to learn this as a techno dancer. I can, and I will, but that is no joke of a dance. You think it hurts looking at? It hurts more understanding what I'm in for. Without dedicated core and balance and *ankle* training, how were people expected to be able to do that?
I don historical dances and just started to learn this. Well maybe in one year I will be able to make the step somehow.
The basic galliard does get you out of breath, but isn’t too hard. It’s when you do the variations that it gets more exhausting. It’s fun, though.
Thanks for the demonstration of this dance! I’ve liked listening to galliard music, and so began wondering what the actual dance looked like. Charming, and athletic, too!
When I play the music, I always end up getting up and doing some galliard steps myself! It does rather make me lose my focus on writing… 😂
This dance looks like a lot of fun. It reminds me of the modern Quick Step.
Looks like a good work out.
Mate, I can galliard and can arrest it is. Constant leg tension and a controlled upper body. I used to use it for fighter training. And for fun.
I would have leg cramps. 😸
Super dancing and music. The music is by Anthony Holborne, piece no 40 in his 'Pavans, Galliards, Almaines' (1599)
Thank you!
@rainerausdemspring3584 yes indeed. I didn't know about Henry Noel possibly being Bonny Boots. Thanks for that.
Lovely dancers and costumes. Thank you for posting this.
I was looking for Galliard a recorder tune and ended up with this wonderful video
Wonderful, I was listening to William Byrd's Galliard and wondering how the court would dance to this. I could not have imagined a more perfect dance. Thank you.
My upstairs neighbours...
Lucky.
I audibly laughed at that one, thank
🤣
If there’s a similar dance where the dancers sing along to it at the top of their voices at 3am, then start threatening to stab each others an hour later, that’s my upstairs neighbours 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Love the variation of the basis step with the little entre-chats! ❤
What a beautiful dance!
Now this is how you do leg day. I can picture doing this at the gym.
No one:
Me in prom:
Why didn’t I think of that? That would have been epic!

Best video on RUclips
A joyful dance. :)
Flying, as if there is no gravity.
There is no gravity, just density of the bodies, which are heavier than the air.
Riverdance - the prequel.
I was thinking the same thing.
Gettin jiggy with it
Very charming
Don Juan de Austria on the deck of the Real taunting the Turks just before the battle of Lepanto on October 7, 1571, as the fifes struck up a lively tune and the sea became like glass, and as the Venetian floating fortresses were towed forward into battle formation.
No useage of their arms what so ever. Very interesting, albeit a bit alien to a modern dancer for sure. Looks like the shuffle.
It's all in the nimble feet.
Arms are a bit effeminate in dancing sometimes. Keeps things more strait-laced and form-like.,
Apparently Queen Elizabeth I was still performing this dance regularly well into her 50s at least.
The old ladies in Elden Ring do this!
I have to learn this and I can't understand, what are they doing at the count of five. For the four counts its a regular front kick, without turnout, but what is the jump after kicks? It looks like changement, but nothing changes. How it's called and how to perform it?
После мастер-класса по Ренессансу на следующий день с кровати мне удалось встать далеко не сразу 👀 Ноги болели шопипец.
The dance is so lovely and somehow cute!
Lovely
a lot difficult than I imagined!!
this is way better than power gym!😂
So which one is Brian and which one is Jason?
Henry VIII courts Anne Boleyn, 1526 (colorised)
I love the leap at 1:25
I’m l learning a part of this dance for a Shakespeare show I’m in. I’m going to cry Becuase how does one move their legs like that and not fall on their ass?
Gorgeous
After this dance the young kids were too tired to do anything else!
fun fact: nobody ever smiled before 1900CE
Very similar to Irish dancing. Like an Irish slip jig. Which has similar steps. (Not the hard shoe Irish dancing - you wear pomps doing it). Very interesting. The rhythm is like another Irish dance but I’ve forgotten the name. Remember the steps though!
Reminds me of Morris Dancing a bit but without the sticks.
So what’s the BGM？
why double jump during cadenza time?
I don't think it's actually a double jump, or at least not meant to be. When they bring their feet together on the fifth beat, before the cadenza, they're so light and graceful that it flows better to keep on their toes and sort of turns into a spring.
@@helenyoung3733 ok, so i mean why bring feet on 5th beat... cadenza is taking two beats so they should be up on 5th beat not on the floor with two feet. just wondering, because it looks like double jump and cinque passi di gagliarda looks a bit different.
@@erdem___yildiz They're following the instructions of Arbeau, 1588, which also matches brief references in English 16th-cent manuscripts e.g. 'One two three four *and* five'. There are variants as you point out. Agree with Helen -- wonderfully light and springy and they don't even appear out of breath!
@@annhinchliffe8314 @Erdem Yildiz There are of course NUMEROUS galliard variations, but I have never come across this one with the extra bringing of feet together on count 5. This must be from one of the lesser known manuscripts. I wish I knew the source. Doing it the more usual way, hovering in the air on count 5, is more difficult. Arbeau says that one does 4 hopped kicks on counts 1,2,3,4, then one is IN THE AIR on count 5, and lands on count 6 (either both feet land on count 6, which is what the Italian sources prefer, or with one foot landing a bit earlier, on count "and", between the 5 and the 6, which is what Arbeau prefers). The momentum from the rebound from the hop on count 4, is what carries the dancer into the air. Because one is in the air, it does not count as a "step," which is why the sequence was called the "five-steps" (cinque pas, cinque passi, cinquepace) even though there are 6 counts of music. The very brief English source confirms this: "one, two, three, four, and five" rather than "one, two, three, four, five, six." But it's always good to learn about a new source and see it performed!!! So Thank You!!!
I also wondered about that. See my reply to Ann Hinchliffe, above.
They really said "hands and arms are not for dancing"
Once again I'm seeing Anglo dance traditions that require your upper body not move at all. They had liquor back in those days, I'm willing to bet
No wonder they had to replace shoes after each dance!
So basically the penguin dance for couples
Why
Prince Don Juan would be proud
3 years late to the game but I'm guessing we read the same book. Legend status at Lepanto.
16th Century aerobics
If there are any AOT (Attack on Titan) fans out there, how did you find this video? A friend and I found this video after trying to find Porco Galliard lmao
Found this dance after reading on tritones and the Galilei family.
I just googled it myself, how in the world did you find this searching porco’s name 😭
@@j.t.9175 I know that you commented a year ago, I apologize for replying now 💀, but how did Galliard tie into that?
@@zacurragazzo9432 We legit just typed in “Porco Galliard” on RUclips when he was just introduced in the manga (I think) and we found this! We wanted to see what would pop up lmao
Well done! Is there dance notation for this choreography? Thank you very much!
Galliards are typically improvisational.
This particular dance was in a 16th century manuscript about recommended dances in English courts. There were just illustrations and maybe some notations, don't quite remember.
@@Oceananswer You could look up (Google) a bloke called Arbeau who wrote about galliards and other dances in a book called Orchesographie, 1588. As Russell and Michael will know, you choose your music then choose any of a range of the movements Arbeau describes. If 2 dancers, they take turns dancing then change places & repeat, as in video. A good wooden floor helps -- it's very energetic!
Dancetime Publication in US produces sets of instructional videos books and music DVDs including How to Dance Through Time. Vol. III Majesty of Renaissance Dance (but Gaillard( only has man's part?!) Perhaps the book has references to others ? Good luck!!
@@tymanung8058 Thank you!
Кажется это так легко!! Кажется...
Apparently Vincentio Saviolo was good at this... Mayhap this dance makes you good at fencing. I can see this making you good at boxing, at least - my calves hurt just watching!
How tf am i here rn

But does it djent?
In 1500s and later Spaniards and other West Europeans took over South and North America plus kidnapping mainly West and Central Africans also for labor
But after 300 years these 2 groups plus others like criollo Mestizo etc lost patience and expelled Spaniiards with their gailllsrds pavsnes etc Renaissance dances also Baroque dances Argentines Uruguayans and etc.then used their own version of these same dances to create new national danced of Independence era 1810 to 1820 such as to Gato el Cuando. el. Escondido etc What fortunate irony
Cry harder.
It's Medieval DDR
Early hardstyle and melbourne shuffle.
What period is this from?
The Renaissance, but I am no expert and cannot narrow it down any more than that. I do know that the gailliard was a favourite dance of Elizabeth I.
16th century
@@JohnSmith-oe5kx Yup. Danced all across most of Europe in the 1500s. Evidence is mostly for courtly settings but there are a couple of references to 'lower classes' having a go. More info if you want from the Historical Dance Society, who tutored for this video, and the Early Dance Circle (both UK).
Must the hold their upper bodies so rigid?
Yes, pretty rigid especially when you consider that the clothes of the time didn't allow bending in the middle. They were also expected to demonstrate control and a noble bearing.( Their arms could have moved just a little though).
@@helenyoung3733 You should know, Helen! how many times have you and Steve danced splendid galliards and canarios for HDS?
mind you, most of the 16thC illustrations I can think of show the chap with sword in scabbard, and often a short cloak on one shoulder. So one hand would have to hold the sword still wouldn't it?
Sure, why not?
They look like birds doing mating dance to atract each other.
like si vienes por la seño de musica :( del ies juan ciudad duarte
Si, si q vengo
@@Camilorto jajajajaajajja camilo
Wait a damn minutes this ain't destiny 2 🧐
so which one？I try to find out the BGM～
should be workout.
Pensé en lo mismo. Además, es divertido.
Looks pre- balletic.
Great dance, but sterile background.
It is not like the demo
Porcooooooooooooooooooo
pieeeckkkkkk
GALLIAAAARD
looks so effortlessly and certainly is not...
goofy
Not as goofy as the modern shite dancing.
Bruh people really called this dancing back in the day
Imagine how dances nowadays will be seen as archaic 100 years from now. Get off your high horse.
And how would you dance to this music? We dance the way we do now because it suits the music we listen to
In two hundred years.. 'can't believe they sacrificed Travis Scott fans for Lucifer in that primitive age'
You had to have skill and poise to dance back then, instead of mincing about to jungle music.
I hate this music class
