Information About

Loure




The loure is a dance of slow or moderate tempo and in ternary meter (6/8, 3/4, or 6/4). The weight is on beat 1, which is further strengthened by the preceding Anacrusis which begins the traditional loure.

Examples of loures are found in the works of N. B., however, that in the Bach-Gesellschaft edition of Bach, reprinted by Dover, the Loure is incorrectly called "Bourée II." and the Partita No. 3 For Violin Solo ).
