當時帕凡舞是身份的象徵。法國舞蹈理論家Thoinot Arbeau在他的《Orchésographie》寫道: “帕凡舞對國王，諸侯和大臣的意義是，吹捧自己，炫耀自己的工具”英國女王伊麗莎白一世特別喜歡跳帕凡舞。
帕凡舞通常伴有伽利阿德舞。
The Pavane is a majestic, stately dance in 4/4 time, thought to be originally from Padua, Italy. It was often used to open a ball or other ceremonial event, as an opportunity for the ladies to show off their dresses.
The Gaillard, also originating from Italy, is a lively dance consisting of four hopping steps and a high leap, an opportunity for the athletic gentlemen to show off for their partners.
The Pavane and Gaillard were hugely popular in 16th and early 17th century Europe, especially in England and France. The two dances were usually performed in sequence, and often composed that way too. William Byrd composed at least 40 sets of Pavanes and Gaillards.
