Some information that Terry had published with the dance description on his website:
This dance is dedicated to the Columbus, Ohio, country dance community in thanks for the John Shaw 25th Anniversary Country Dance Weekend, a wonderfully ecumenical weekend of American, English, and Scottish country dancing.
The dance was inspired by two English country dances taught that Weekend: The Bishop, a classic Playford dance which shares the opening figures of The Jubilee Jig, and The Archbishop, a modern dance by Fried de Metz Herman who adapted that opening to a four couple set by having opposite corners dance together.
The final version of the dance is an example of what happens when dance testers tell me that sequential two-person figures are “boring.”
