Welcome to CDSS

For almost 100 years, we’ve been connecting people who are interested in English and Anglo-American traditional dance and music -- contras, squares, English country dance, morris and sword, folk songs, and the incredible tunes. We invite you to hang out with us…read What We Do, listen to the Current Playlist, look up an event, peruse the online publications and articles, learn about our camps, apply for a grant, buy stuff, and read/post an announcement. We love what we do. We hope you do too.

Current Playlist

Tunes and songs taken from recordings we carry. More information about them is at Playlist.
