Throughout the colonial period in America, country dancing was the principal recreation of all social classes. Americans had inherited this tendency from Elizabethan England, and many continental Europeans also took up English country dancing as their own. Four Colonial Country Dances feature country dance tunes that were indigenous to New England and particularly to the Boston area.

Während der Kolonialisierung Nordamerikas war der englische Volkstanz ein Freizeitvergnügen, das in allen Gesellschaftsschichten populär war. Die Amerikaner hatten diese Neigung vom Elisabethanischen England übernommen und auch viele Europäer machten sich den englischen Volkstanz zu Eigen. Four Colonial Country Dances enthält Volkstanzweisen aus dem Staat New England und insbesondere der Gegend um Boston. Ein leichtes, schwungvolles Musikvergnügen!
