Folk Dances of Austria, Vol. 1

In the first volume of Folk Dances of Austria, compilers Ronnie and Stu Lipner write: “Whether you be 6 or 60 years old, let your hair down a little and join in. You will never regret it.” Complete with liner notes that include measure-by-measure dance instructions for each song, Folk Dances of Austria, Vol. 1 is an interactive album that will give you a reason to dust off your waltzing shoes and count in threes. Accompanied by Karl Kubat’s brass folk dance band.
