Hah! Yeah, he said the highlight of the party came when the fiddler struck up this song. Lol. I just read it and looked it up.

"The Spectator" brought me here, as I was reading up on the character of Sir Roger de Coverley which Addison and Steele created for their publication in 1711. According to their narrative this dance was invented by their protagonist's great-grandfather

I mean, I can walk and chew gum at the same time, but I am definitely not coordinated enough to pull this off. Impressive.

Just found this dance while researching my family name! Coverley! Apparently this was a very famous dance from medieval times?

why are they playing the 'Keel Row' instead of the proper tune?

This is an illustration of the steps to the Sir Roger De Coverley dance, but it is NOT the accepted tune! This tune is another old English tune, The Keel Row. Technically, the dancers are all too close together and the tempo is too fast, whether playing the Keel Row or the proper Sir Roger tune, For it done right, see kzitem.info/news/bejne/yq-bmX6lfWd9iKQ for the correct tune, with the right spacing and tempo!

The dance is called Sir Roger De Coverley. It is one of our oldest country dances.

Indeed, it is a country dance and there is a tune of the same name which fits the dance perfectly. Almost certainly the dance was devised to go with the tune which is in 9/8 time. The keel row does not work well with it, which is why the dancers are struggling to stay in time.

Странный танец, постоянно танцуют только две пары, а остальные стоят как мебель
