A project to enter Playford first edition (1651) is mostly finished! Here it is! I tried to take care to not correct spellings and obvious mistakes, but if you find something right, let me know... :) Music will be on the way as soon as have time to get it in. A small portion of the music has been entered.
Eric Praetzel has been kind enough to enter the music zipped in midi format he has even provided some scans of music from a reprint editions of playford. I do not know if the
copywrite of the reprint has expired, however. I've decided to use Chris Walshaw's "abc" format due to many suggestions/requests
You can also find a complete facsimile of the 1651 edition here. Thanks Gregory!
Would you like to help? send mail to flip@andrew.cmu.edu

_______________________________________________________________________________
To the Ingenious Reader. The Art of Dancing called by the Ancient Greeks Orchestice, and Orchestis, is a commendable and rare Quality fit for yong Gentlemen, if opportunely and civilly used. And Plato, that Famous Philosopher thought it meet, that yong Ingenious Children be taught to dance. It is a quality that has been formerly honoured in the Courts of Princes, when performed by the most Noble Heroes of the Times! The Gentlemen of the Innes of Court, whose sweet and ayry Activitity has crowned their Grand Solemnities with Admiration to all Spectatores. This Art has been Anciently handled by Athenæus, Julius Pollux, Cælius Rhodiginus, and others, and much commend it to be Excellent for Recreation, after more serious Studies, making the body active and strong, gracefull in deportment, and a quality very much beseeming a Gentleman. Yet all this should not have been an Incitement to me for Publication of this Worke (knowing these Times and the Nature of it do not agree,)But that there was a false and surrepticious Copy at the Printing Presse, which if it had been published, would have been a disparagement to the quality and the Professors thereof, and a hinderance to the Learner : Therefore for prevention of all which, having an Excellent Copy by me, and the assistance of a knowing Friend; I have ventured to put forth this ensuing Worke to the view, and gentle censure of all ingenious Gentlemen lovers of this Quallity ; not doubting but their goodnes will pardon what may be amisse and accept of the honest Intention of him that is a faithfull honourer of your Virtues, and
Your Servant to command,
J. P.
