The dance tells the tale of the lovely Lorelei (or Loreley) a Mermaid Siren who bewitched sailors and knights with her beautiful singing, luring them to their death.
Therefore it should be danced in true Sailor/Knightly fashion (folded arms, bows and ship ahoy actions)
Do not be put off by the tags and re-starts they are easy and the music once you have heard it a few times will tell you where they are. The music slows at the end enabling you to take a final bow.
