Definitions

A slow foxtrot.

Examples

“During the 1920s it developed into two distinct styles, a slow dance in the English style (later called simply the ‘foxtrot’ in English-speaking countries and France and the ‘slowfox’ in German-speaking countries) and the ‘quickstep’ (in German-speaking countries called the ‘foxtrott’).”

“When the music changed to a slowfox, she threw me a strange glance, then went cheek to cheek, whispering into the guy’s ear.”

“Suddenly the tempo changes to that of a "Slowfox," as the score says — that is, the current dance rage, the fox-trot — and a light-textured central passage begins to swing more and more intensely, finally breaking out again in the fast opening material that brings the concerto to its invigorating close.”

“I asked him if he would teach me how to dance a slowfox.”
