The tradition
The Canary dance (known as Canario in Italian sources, Canarie in French ones) was a Renaissance dance inspired by an indigenous dance and song of the Canary Islands, Spain (probably the one known as Tajaraste) that became popular all over Europe in the late 16th and early 17th century. It is mentioned in dance manuals from France and Italy, and is mentioned in sources from Spain and England, as well, including in plays by William Shakespeare.¶
