Opis

Mark Knowles opens with a brief overview of anti-dance sentiment from the 4th century to the present day, the waltz perhaps the most beloved and most maligned social dance to come out of this period. It then explores the Charleston, the Tango and Ragtime dances such as the Turkey Trot, Grizzly Bear, and Bunny Hug.
