Заметки
This dance was inspired by my second visit to Budapest for their SCD Weekend in September 2023. Once again I climbed the hill on the Buda side of the Danube which gives a good view over the city.
The first 8 bars represent the zigzag paths up the hill. The arches are the bridges with boats passing beneath them and the turning third couple are the island in the river. Among the dances taught by our teacher, Antoine Rousseau, were
The Rose Garden
and
A Dance for Susi
. The former has the “kissing gate” figure in bars 21-24 here and the latter includes the Rose progression. Bars 17-20 are a reminder of strathspey step practice. The dance is very busy which reflects an intense weekend. The top and bottom keep swapping: just imagine walking from the hotel to the gymnasium, and back, and back…
