"Badger Gavotte," Published by Henry Ford, 1925-1926

In the 1920s, Henry Ford thought the old-fashioned dances of his youth should be revived. So he published a book of dance instruction--and also this sheet music for school orchestras or community musicians who wished to provide live music for 19th century dances like the reel, quadrille, schottische, and gavotte. The music included parts for violin, bass, cello, viola, clarinet, flute, piano, trumpet, trombone, and drums.
