| + | My favorite first dance of an evening is Don Armstrong's "Broken Sixpence," because it is gentle and intuitive for beginners and enjoyable for everyone. I used the dance so much, though, I feared dancers would grow tired of it. After searching for other, similar dances and finding none, I wrote this one to provide some variety. Fred Todt suggested the title, following the "Sing a Song of Sixpence" nursery rhyme and a recently developed interest in birding. I have since become equally fond of Bob Isaacs' "A Pocketful of Rye" as a first dance of a program for more experienced dancers.\\ | ||
| + | Along with "Ramsay Chase," this dance is also republished here from The Cardinal Collection, which is almost out of print. This simple dance may be my best composition. I like the English dance feel when combined with Daron Douglas' compelling tune, "Yellow Song," which is on the companion CD. | ||
