The country-dance arrived to Spain through the France border during the fi rst half of the 18th century and it was codifi ed in Spanish language by the French dance treatises authors (Ferriol and Minguet). Both described two basic categories of countrydance: the English and the French, and they choreographed several examples following the pattern of treatises created by authors such as Feuillet (1706) and De la Cuisse (1762). During the second half of the century country-dance became essential in public balls, proof of which are the numerous English and French country-dance compilations in performed within those balls. The present study aims to explore the evolution of country-dance in Spain during the 18th century: Is it possible to establish certain particular characteristics? Were Spanish choreographers and composers able to write their own choreographies? To what extent were the French notation systems assimilated by Spanish authors?
