Scottish Country Dancers, 20th Century


Two children dancing, Scotland. Scottish country dances are categorized as reels (including hornpipes), jigs, and strathspeys according to the type of music to which they are danced. The first two types (quick-time dances) feature fast tempos, quick movements and a lively feel. The third type (strathspey) has a much slower tempo and a more tempered, stately feel. Frank and Frances Carpenter Collection, circa 1900-20.
