+   of traditional dances "officially sponsored" by the English Folk Dance Society.
+   This track is at the faster tempo; use a skip-change step in the "B" music.

+. Chelsea Reach The Dancing Master, 3rd Ed. (Playford), 1665. The
+   Playford Ball, 1994. Cecil Sharp could not interpret the first figure to fit the
+-bar tune; his well-known reconstruction requires 48 bars. Though
+   Playford's publication clearly shows repeat signs for the "A" and "B" music,
+   Sharp resolved the conundrum by suggesting that the music be played ABAB
+   throughout the entire dance, obscuring the tune's congruence with the nor-
+   mal structure of the up-a-double, siding, and arming figures. England's Colin
+   Hume suggests that a better solution is to play AABBBB for the first figure,
+   followed by AABB for the subsequent figures. We offer it here. 4-COUPLE

+   McQuillen and "Nancy's Waltz" by Chris Romaine. Ease and Elegance
+   (Herman), 1995. Fried wrote the dance in 1989 to honor Country Dancers
+   of Westchester's pianist Leah Barkan. To complement Amelia, Fried chose Jay
+   Ungar's "Ashokan Farewell" as the second tune, before it was made famous by
+   Ken Burns's Civil War documentary and Jacqueline's playing on the sound-
+   track. We thought we'd give that tune a rest, and use Chris Romaine's lovely
+   waltz instead. 3-CoUPLE LONGWAYS D/AMAJoR 3/4 32 BARS AABB 6x 4:55

+   baronet in a long line that continues to the present. (A Sir Watkin William
+   Wynne presently resides on the family manor located between Oswestry and
+   Bala.) Charles Bolton's reconstruction adds a slipping circle to the original
+   triple minor longways dance. The Band adds some clever imitation figures to
+   the tune s unusual 10-bar B music. 3-COUPLE LONGWAYS G MAJOR 6/8 36
