GRACES [5], LES. English, Quadrille (6/8 time). A Major ('A' part), E Major ('B' part) & A Minor ('C' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABCA. The fourth part (or fourth figure set) of "Lancers Quadrilles", from the (Thomas) Hardy family music manuscripts, Dorset, England. The melody employed for the "Pretty Maiden" from Storace's The Haunted Tower, while the name of the dance movement is "Les Graces." As with other dances and tunes, the tune tended over time to take on the name of the dance. See Annotation:Lancers Quadrilles (The) for more.
