What is Bourrée?
[[File:Semur-en-Auxois.-danseurs de bourrée.jpg|thumb|255px|<center>Bourrée</center>]] The '''Bourrée''' is a quick double time [[dance]] of French origins. It is similar to a [[Gavotte]], but has a 1 beat anacruis (upbeat), where the gavotte has a 2 beat [[anacrusis]]. It often has a [[rhythm]] with a strong beat followed by two weaker ones. For example, an accented crochet followed by two quavers. This is called dactylic. {{stub}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Bourree}} [[Category:Ballroom dances]]
