Currency Lasses Quadrille

Saturday 16th May at 9am

This June marks the 200th anniversary of the Currency Lasses Quadrille, a significant milestone in Australia’s cultural heritage. First danced in Sydney in 1826 at a private ball where “the muses and graces mingled together most harmoniously,” the music was composed by Tempest Margaret Paul. It is the earliest known surviving instrumental composition written in Australia—and notably, dance music.
As no original instructions exist, a period-appropriate version has been devised in consultation with leading quadrille authority Ellis Rogers. This single-figure quadrille will be taught in this workshop, alongside a selection of Regency dances known in the early colony.
