This 42-minute VHS videotape is the third in a series of "How To Dance Through Time" videos. It highlights the intricacies of an Italian court dance suite, which mirrors the episodic changes of courtship. Nido D'Amore" (The Nest of Love) exposes the technique for all the dance suites of the era, and features The Opening (which represents a proper meeting); The Galliard (a male virtuoso display); The Saltarello (which shows the couple in jubilation together); and The Canary (which shows the ongoing individualism that exists in all relationships). Professional dancers demonstrate each step in slow motion. The dance is performed with the authentic music and fashions of the era. Historical information, with original illustrations, illuminates the evolutionary role of the dance. This videotape is also available in DVD format. (SM)
