http://www.kickery.com/2008/10/chassez-dechassez-sequences-for-regency-era-french-quadrilles.html#more A droite et a gauche:
Шаги: Шассе вбок (Chassé): Вправо - На затакт ("и") - подъем (Temps-Leve) и вынос правой ноги во вторую позицию ("раз"), закрываем левой ногой сзади в пятую или третью позицию ("и") и выносим правую ногу снова во вторую позицию ("Два").
Глиссад (Glissade): Скользим одной ногой в сторону, и закрываем другую в пятую или третью позицию. glissade dessous указывает что нога закрывается сзади, glissade dessus - спереди. Скольжение в сторону выполняется на затакт ("И") с закрытием на такт ("РАЗ").
Sissone: hop on one foot while pointing the other foot straight down, close along the leg, either behind (dessous) or before (dessus). The sissone is also performed with the free leg extended in a raised second position, but this is not used in any of these particular sequences. The hop is initiated on the upbeat and lands on the downbeat.
Варианты исполнения A droite et à gauche (не буду переводить, и так все понятно):
1. The easiest sequence for this move is found in the descriptions of setting sequences in Contre Danses; the author notes under number thirteen that is it "used often for Chassez Dechassez in L’Ete of the Quadrille."
1b Glissade behind to right, glissade behind to right
1b Glissade behind to right, assemblé right behind
1b Glissade behind to left, glissade behind to left
1b Glissade behind to left, assemblé left behind
count: and ONE and TWO and THREE, FOUR twice
2. The diagram for the figure in Contre Danses depicts a different sequence:
1b Chassé (sideways right)
1b Jeté left before, assemblé right before
1b Glissade behind to left, glissade behind to left
1b Glissade behind to left, assemblé left behind
count: and ONE and TWO, THREE, FOUR and ONE and TWO and THREE, FOUR
The closing of the glissades and assemblé behind in the return to the left is not spelled out; I am extrapolating from the pattern of the previous sequence. The asymmetry of going to the right with a chassé and returning to the left with glissades is very typical of quadrille step-sequences.
3. Strathy varies this pattern very slightly by reducing the number of glissades from two to three:
1b Chassé (sideways right)
1b Jeté left before, assemblé right before
1b Glissade behind to left, glissade behind to left
1b Jeté left before, assemblé right before
count: and ONE and TWO, THREE, FOUR twice
The second jeté is indeed from left foot before to left foot before; the foot is thrown out to the side and then replaced exactly where it started. This is a necessary "fudge" in order to end the sequence in the standard position with the right foot in front of the left.
4. Gourdoux-Daux's 1811 manual gives a variation on Strathy's variation:
1b Chassé (sideways right)
1b Jeté left before, jeté right before
1b Glissade behind to left, glissade behind to left
1b Jeté left before, assemblé right before
count: and ONE and TWO, THREE, FOUR twice
The only difference is in the second bar, in which Gourdoux-Daux recommends two jetés rather than a jeté-assemblé. This is slightly harder to perform than the standard jeté-assemblé but her the virtue of making the following glissade easier, since the gliding foot is already off the ground.
4. Interestingly, the Guillou translation does not give this sequence. Instead, Guillou provides a different, symmetrical one, possibly of his own devising:
1b Chassé (sideways right)
1b Jeté left before, assemblé right before
1b Chassé (sideways left)
1b Jeté right behind, assemblé left behind
count: and ONE and TWO, THREE, FOUR twice
5. The final pattern is found in both the Gourdoux-Daux original and the Guillou translation:
1b Sissone right before, glissade right before
1b Glissade right behind, assemblé right behind
1b Sissone left before, glissade left before
1b Glissade left behind, assemblé left behind
count: ONE and TWO and THREE, FOUR twice
