| + | |||
| + | Three couple longways, G Major, 6/8\\ | ||
| + | A Choice Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances (Thompson), 1774. Retreads (Bolton), 1985. | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | A1 1-4 1st couple long cast to second place (2nd couple | ||
| + | moving up on bars 3-4). | ||
| + | 5-8 1st couple two-hand turn. | ||
| + | A2 1-8 1st and 3rd couples four changes of rights and | ||
| + | lefts, starting with partner. | ||
| + | B1 1-4 1st couple lead down through 3rd couple and cast | ||
| + | back to second place. | ||
| + | 5-8 1st couple lead up through 2nd couple and cast to | ||
| + | sec- ond place. | ||
| + | 9-10 1st couple turn single down (man right, woman | ||
| + | left). | ||
| + | B2 1-4 Circle six left halfway, breaking into two lines. | ||
| + | 5-6 Keeping hands, lines set, moving backwards. | ||
| + | 7-8 Letting go hands, turn single moving forward. | ||
| + | 9-10 Partners two-hand turn halfway.</code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | NOTES\\ | ||
| + | A2 The four changes here are leisurely (four steps per change). They should be not only elegant, but also timed to the music.\\ | ||
| + | B2 5-10 This is a slightly quicker sequence compared to the rest of the dance. One suggestion is to set back in a line, and not too far. Then attempt to do the turn single forward together! Finally, be on time with the short halfway turn. | ||
