My son needs to tell about his music at his recital on Friday. The piece is "Govotte", by ?Whitier. All we know is that it was a popular dance at king's parties. Could someone please give us a few more details on this dance or about the music. He is 6 and needs extra information because he will automatically shorten it in front of an audience.

Thank you

It was written by Gurlitt, and it was a famous dance.
