'''LANSING QUADRILLE'''. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Kentucky. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The ultimate source for the tune, Tom York, worked on Ohio River steamboats. John Harrod and Mark Wilson believe the title may have originally been "Lansers' Quadrille" a generic name for a type of multi-part dance still called a Lancers' Set in some parts of North America. Jeff Titon (2001) points out the tune represents an uncommon style in Kentucky-that of a ballroom dance salon or riverboat parlor-rather than the 'hoedown' dances of rural regions. These tunes were much more common in northern North America, and are direct descendents of the more restrained dances of the British Isles and the Continent. Some of these tunes were preserved in northeastern Kentucky fiddling, and, according to Tom Carter (1990) can be seen in some Virginia fiddling as well, as for example, in the playing of Emmett Lundy. See also "[[Portsmouth Airs]]" for another of this genre.

LANSING QUADRILLE. American, Quadrille or Two-Step (cut time). USA, Kentucky. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Informant Alfred Bailey's (Fleming County, Ky.) source for the tune, Tom York, worked on Ohio River steamboats. John Harrod and Mark Wilson believe the title may have originally been "Lanser's Quadrille" a generic name for a type of multi-part dance still called a Lancers' Set in some parts of North America. Jeff Titon (2001) points out the tune represents an uncommon style in Kentucky-that of a ballroom dance salon or riverboat parlor-rather than the 'hoedown' dances of rural regions. These tunes were much more common in northern North America, and are direct descendents of the more restrained dances of the British Isles and the Continent. Some of these tunes were preserved in northeastern Kentucky fiddling, and, according to Tom Carter (1990) can be seen in some Virginia fiddling as well, as for example, in the playing of Emmett Lundy. See also "Portsmouth Airs" for another of this genre.
