Notes:This dance is dedicated to Philippe Callens, dance teacher and choreographer extraordinaire. When Philippe teaches, he does a wonderful job of conveying, not only the figures, but also the joy of the dance and the music. And when he choreographs - well what can I say, except that he has written many dances that I wish I had thought of.
Music:"Spring Sprightly" by Martha Stokely - 16 bar march (AB)
