Contra and English Dance Piano

Robbin Marcus has been playing for both contra and English dances since the early part of this century. Classically trained as a piano major, Robbin's versatility shines in the improvisatory dance arena. Here, she gets to really "let go" and just play for fun, riffing off other musicians and always discovering something new about familiar music. 

Robbin is a member of Reelplay, her band with spouse Dave Marcus. Reelplay happily plays for both English country and Contra dance gigs.  Information about Reelplay can be found on our website. You will also find a host of recordings of us playing dance tunes there.

I love working with Dave, but I'm happy to work with others as well! Contact me and let's see what we can figure out!

Here's a quick video of 'Round Robbin English Dance band playing at the Atlanta Dance Weekend English Country Dance with Seth Tepfer calling "A Trip To Town-O" (tune, the Foxhunter's Reel)  Video here

Seth says:  Thanks for providing such fine music for English on Saturday. Your joy and passion is evident in your music. Your attention to the walk thrus and the dancers makes the experience smoother for all.
It was an honor working with you.
