PANDEAN DANCE IN TEKELI. AKA – "Pedean Dance in Tekile." English, Country Dance and Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Printed in the Hardy MSS. Tekeli, or, The siege of Montgatz was a three-act melorama by James Hook [1], adapted from Pixerecourt’s French drama of 1803; the title was the surname of the Hungarian patriot, Emeric, Count Tekeli (1656–1703). It was staged in 1806 "with distinguished success at the Theatre-Royal, Drury-Lane," but later adapted by Hook into a two-act version or burletta with songs (1809). American poet Edgar Allen Poe's mother appeared as Christine in Tekeli on March 23, 1811, at the Charleston Theatre. See also other melodies from the play; “Quick Step in Tekeli,” "Favourite Pandean Dance (A)" and “Tekely”).
