[SCA-Dance] Greetings and question

[Ben Pung]

Playford's dances are often named after the tunes to which they are  
danced. Evidence of the tune does not necessarily imply existence of  
the dance. Even mention of a dance by the same name does not imply  
that it is the same dance as the one in Playford's book.
