DESCRIPTION

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Altfrentsch is a rarely used concept in Appenzell dialect that has its origins in the German expression altfrankisch (old Franconian), which itself derives from the Middle High German altvrenkisch, thus in the manner of the old Franks. It means roughly old fashioned or in the old manner. Altfrentsch is also used to denote the original forms of Appenzell string music. Altfrentsch is thus the name given to the oldest collection of dances from Canton Appelzell. The dances in this collection, dating from the late 18th century, were only discovered in Gonten in 1998, and have thus not been frequently recorded or performed.
