Baroque Dances -- I need to review

on: May 08, 2007, 03:30:27 AM

Allamande, Corrante, Gigue, Sarabande, etc.

Baroque dances.

What do the names mean exactly? Or as exactly as the definitions get. I remember vaguely... Gigue is 6/8?.... but I want to be more exact, refreshed.

And while we're at it -- Do these dances ever segue one straight into the other without a break?
