Back to Fantocini (The)


FANTOCINI, THE. English, Jig. F Major. Standard tuning. AABB. The melody was first published by Charles and Samuel Thompson in their Compleat Collection, vol. 3 (London, 1773). Country dance instructions for "The Fantocini" were printed in John Griffith's Collection of the Newest and Most Fashionable Country Dances and Cotillions (Providence, R.I., 1788). Fantocini was the plural of the Italian fantoccio, and refers to puppets moving on wires, or a puppet show with such objects.
