Cinque Pace

Cinque Pace - using Double Harmonic, Hungarian Minor scales - Cinque Pace (a French Galliard) was a dance form popular in 16th Century Europe. Prominent enough in England for Shakespeare's Beatrice to mention it in Much Ado About Nothing. It is an athletic dance that typically has five steps. In French such a basic step is called a cinq pas. Its steps are used within many other forms of dance, for example La Volta.
