Заметки

Written for the Brighton and Hove Scottish Country Dance Club when they moved from Balfour School on Balfour Road to Moulsecoomb Hall. The deviser notes that the principle is that dancers move from dancing in the top part of the set to the bottom part, with an overlap from one couple to the next, as in
The Dundee City Police Jig
by
John W Mitchell
.
Note: Since the dance is designed as a canon, it requires only 96 bars of music rather than the 160 bars that would normally be required for a 32-bar dance for five couples.
