| + | Chris Sackett and Brooke Friendly 2005\\ | ||
| + | Square for Four Couples\\ | ||
| + | Tune: Larkin Grace | ||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | A 1-2 Heads: opposites advance setting to change places by L-shoulder (end facing out) | ||
| + | 3-4 Heads: turn individually Over R shoulder into 2-hand turn halfway with opposite | ||
| + | (end in middle of square, in front of home place) | ||
| + | 5-8 Heads circle 4-hands to left three quarters, and (on bar 8) pass original opposite | ||
| + | by R shoulder to face sides in two parallel lines of 4 | ||
| + | 9-16 L shoulder heys for 4 in each line into... | ||
| + | B 1-4 Heads R hands across once round in middle while side dancers (as individuals) | ||
| + | orbit the set CCW halfway round | ||
| + | 5-8 Heads, with nearest sides, L-hands across once round | ||
| + | 9-12 Those foursome begin a broken circle to right: the 2nd diagonal of the side couple | ||
| + | leads the foursome from a small circle into a big circle three quarters around so all | ||
| + | couples have progressed one place CCW from original place (ending with side | ||
| + | couples in head couple positions) | ||
| + | 13-16 Partners L-hand turn once round | ||
| + | Repeat the dance from new positions (original sides active in head positions)</code> | ||

| + | Music: O Son do ar by Bieito Romero\\ | ||
| + | Teaching points: \\ | ||
| + | A bar 9-16 the parallel lines for the heys are across the middle of the set.\\ | ||
| + | A bar 16 for heads: last pass of hey by R-shoulder is almost a half gypsy with original opposite | ||
| + | to get into the R-hands across.\\ | ||
| + | B bars 1-4: for sides orbiting the set the 2 diagonal is in front of partner.\\ | ||
| + | B bars 9-12: the open circle of 4 (hands joined except for the leader) quickly unwinds into the | ||
| + | broken circle of 8; it should look and feel like a real circle even though not all hands are joined.\\ | ||
| + | Originally written for Larkin Sackett as a Scottish strathspey and published in | ||
| + | first volume of dances, it works equally well as a waltz. | ||
