    Extractions: ** OPEN EVENINGS ** This year's Open Evenings are on Tuesday 20 and 27 September 2005 at Quetta Park Community Hall. If you'd like to have a go at morris dancing, please feel free to come along - contact Barbara for details. Fleet Morris was formed in 1984, and has a wide repertoire of dances, mainly in the Cotswold style. Our dances are based round those from the villages of Adderbury, Bampton, Ducklington, Fieldtown and Lichfield, with a few Border dances thrown in to change the tempo. We meet every Tuesday evening at Quetta Community Hall, Church Crookham and welcome new members from September onwards. Our dancers are all female, but we have musicians of both sexes. You need no previous dancing experience to become a morris dancer, but an outgoing personality is an advantage, along with a good sense of humour, and a liking for a good social life. As you can see from our programme, we travel far and near during the summer - what better way to enjoy the delights of the countryside!

Other interesting stories Due to dear old 'Unkle Ken' having a prior claim on Trafalgar Square, our main show spot for the 2005 Day of Dancewas going to be Leicester Square. This is a far from ideal spot at the best of times and then it transpired that Leicester Square was also going to be of no use due to some film permiere going on. Hearing of our plight, a nice chap at WCC has givn us permission to use the Nort Terrace of Trafalgar Square outside the National Gallery. So, we're back in the square then.

    Extractions: The Morris comprises a variety of forms of traditional ritual dances from England, but The Black Jokers specialize in Cotswold Morris, as was practiced in the villages of Bledington and Brackley in the English Midlands. Morris Dancing is one of the characteristic Folk Dances of England. Its origins are lost in the mists of time, derived from the pan-European agrarian traditions of fertility rites and celebrations at sowing and harvest-tide. Though well known during Shakespeare's time, the Industrial Revolution cut into its constituency so that by the turn of the century the Morris was practiced only by a dwindling number of Ale-drinking pensioners in, what some would call, the lesser sophisticated villages of the English Midlands. Discovered in the nick of time by an itinerant ethno-musicologist, Morris Dancing was seen as a hither-to unstudied subject of academic research, and via publications and other means enjoyed a revival in Britain. Morris became a part of the curriculum in schools, new teams were formed, and over the decades it has spread throughout the English-speaking world. Today, the Morris has found a home in academe, providing research opportunities and thesis topics at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Teams can be found associated with many prominent institutions of higher education, among them Marlboro College, University of Indiana at Bloomington, UCal Berkeley, and even such conservative institutions such as Oxford, Cambridge, and M.I.T. Students, staff and faculty alike are captivated by the potent combination of aerobic dance and fermented beverages. Ph.D., LL.D., MBA and SB join with TA and RA; engineer and mathematician dance be-side poet and architect to celebrate the changing seasons.

    http://web.syr.edu/~rsholmes/morris/realhistory.html
    
    Extractions: OK, now that we're alone we can dispense with the B.S. and get real. The first thing to remember about this subject is, simply: DON'T BELIEVE ANYTHING. There is a lot of hogwash being circulated on the subject of the "origins" of morris dancing especially by morris dancers (such as me :-) ). Enormous amounts of speculation based on little or no data, faulty assumptions, wishful thinking, and bad logic. Beware. The second thing is: not everything that is called "morris dancing" is necessarily related, and some things that are not called "morris dancing" may be. Nomenclature is a dangerous basis for historical theories. The third thing is: even a particular type of morris dancing probably has multiple antecedents. It's misleading to talk about "the origin". Based on what I've read, my capsule summary of what seems to be the most reasonable interpretation of the evidence is as follows: 0) There is no reason to believe morris dancing ever had anything to do with pagan fertility rites. 1) There probably was nothing called "morris dancing" in England much earlier than the 15th century. Around then, a form of dance typically called by names like "moreys daunce" was imported from

    http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/morris/music/wwwdance.html
    
    Extractions: abc abc is a musical notation system developed by Chris Walshaw . It is in widespread use for the transmission of folk music via ASCII text, and there are numerous programs which convert the abc source code into beautifully typeset score and/or audio outputs. One of these abc client programs is abc2ps by Michael Methfessel abc language (w:) which permits alignment of lyrics with notes. This extension can be applied to the problem of communicating the notations of folk dancing; i.e., stepping and hand motions. In particular, it is demonstrably applicable to morris dancing. Historically morris dance notation has been done by typesetting (or handwriting) abbreviations of foot stepping and hand motions under and over the musical score. This was the methodology originally employed by Cecil Sharp in the Morris Book, and it has been continued in one form or another in almost all subsequent publications for teaching the morris. In June of 1997 Norman Stanfield of the Morris Dancing Discussion List started a thread on the problem of jigs with slow capers. The existing notation for the musical transitions into and out of slow caper sections has rarely been precise enough to communicate exactly how a tune might be played. In many cases the exact nature of the pattern of stepping is equally ambiguous. Thus there is variation in the interpretation of the dances.

58. Seabright: What Is Morris ?
    Briefly, the Cotswold morris is a traditional folk dance which was found in small Welsh Border morris is a wild, usually stickwielding dance often done  
    http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/morris/whatisit.html
    
    Extractions: Briefly, the Cotswold morris is a traditional folk dance which was found in small villages around Oxford, England at the end of the 19th century. It was a central part of annual springtime rituals throughout the region. The dancers wear dozens of bells on each leg, wield sticks and/or handkerchiefs, and dance to lively folk tunes. When Seabright dances on the street we carry a descriptive leaflet with text by Gereg Blaiddllwyd and myself. (If you think it looks like your leaflet, that's probably because we've cribbed pieces of text from somebody who cribbed them from you.) The leaflet gives a quick (and dirty) history of the morris and invites the crowd to support our endeavor. It is a high-impact, anaerobic form of dance done to live music by teams (or sides) of six who are all dressed in brightly colored kit. The stepping is done in a style designed to maximize the ringing of the bells whilst minimizing the danger of impact injury. Some dances consist of 6 solid minutes of stepping and are more strenuous than running for a mile. Dances done while waving handkerchiefs often contain spectacular leaps high into the air. Dances done with clashing of sticks could have nasty consequences to dancers or audience. From Cecil Sharp's Morris Book, part I
