In Tony Parkes’s third sense, of a square dance prompted to a 64-count tune, in the New
England style, many singing-call squares could be thought of as quadrilles. Pretty much
any sequence devised for a 64-count singing call can be prompted and danced in this
fashion, without singing. Indeed older singing calls are a rich source of
highly-danceable sequences for traditional-style squares, useable by those of us who don’t
sing or don’t have an appropriate band handy for singing calls.
