Peter Thompson and his family published many collections of dances in the latter half of the 18th century, and many dances that people think of as "Playford" are actually from Thompson collections. Thomas will look at a varied selection.
Pete and Sue will be well known to many of you for their excellent musicianship and superb playing for dance.
