+ | Four couple longways, F Major, 2/2 | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Dancing Master•, 1st Ed. (Playford), 1651. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Playford Ball, Kate Van Winkle Keller and Genevieve Shimer (CDSS), 1994. | ||
+ | |||
+ | New "B" music by Phil Merrill. | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | Part I | ||
+ | A1 1-4 Partners lead up a double and back. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5-8 With top two couples facing up and bottom two couples facing down, end dancers, | ||
+ | followed by neighbors, cast through nearest middle place and lead back to original | ||
+ | places all ending facing down. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A2 1-4 Partners lead down a double and back. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5-8 Cast and lead to places as in Al. | ||
+ | |||
+ | B1 1-8 1st and 3rd couples face each other, dance forward a double to meet and fall back, | ||
+ | then circle four once around. | ||
+ | |||
+ | B2 1-8 2nd and 4th couples the same. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Part II | ||
+ | A1,2 1-16 Partners side (Cecil Sharp style); | ||
+ | set and turn single. That again. | ||
+ | |||
+ | B1 1-2 Simultaneously, top two men and top two women two- hand turn halfway. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3-4 Bottom two men and women the same. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5-8 All set to partners and turn single. | ||
+ | B2 1-8 Repeat B1 to original place. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Part III | ||
+ | A1 1-16 Partners arm right; | ||
+ | set and turn single. That again, arm- ing left. | ||
+ | |||
+ | B1 1-4 End couples with partner and middle couples with neighbor, lead out a double | ||
+ | from the center of the set, change hands and lead back. | ||
+ | 5-8 Circle eight halfway. | ||
+ | B2 1-8 Repeat B1 to original place.</code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | NOTES | ||
+ | Part I, A1 | ||
+ | At the end of bar 4, the bottom two couples turn towards partners and face down to start | ||
+ | the cast and lead in bar 5. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Part I, B1 and B2 | ||
+ | As the 1st and 3rd couples (2nd and 4th couples in B2) meet, the couple in second place | ||
+ | (third place in B2) must step back out of the way. | ||
+ | Part III | ||
+ | In this quiet dance, the last figure, in Part III, is known as "the burst"! | ||
+ | A calm dance more about control and timing than anything else. Fairly simple and easy | ||
+ | to learn, it provides dancers the opportunity to dance precisely to the music. T | ||
+ | he signature is in the third part, where everyone leads away from the set, and | ||
+ | returns just in time to start the circle. The timeless tune is known to folk music | ||
+ | lovers everywhere. | ||
