Devised 27 March 2018 for our “midwinter” themed night with the theme of Spring into Autumn, to which club members bring families. Our motif was the Maypole… Revised 10/4/2018 with the help of the Tuesday group. Recommended music is that used commonly for “Nottingham Lace”, that is traditional tune “Hebridean Milking Song” and e.g. “The Cockle Gatherers” or other traditional sets of tunes. Any of the recordings by Ian Muir, Frank Reid or the Lothian Band would be excellent. (If no such recording is available, it could be danced as a jig in which case I would use “The Argyll Square” (or “Bonnie
Ann” if desperate).)
Teaching Notes: If using the non-alternative version, it is helpful to get the men and ladies to dance their parts of 9-16 separately.
