| + | Tune “Sophia” Musicalischey | ||
| + | Tugendtspiegel by Erasmus Widmann, 1631. | ||
| + | |||
| + | NOTES:\\ | ||
| + | Al 3-6 It helps to have dancers think of this as all one flowing unit, not three | ||
| + | separate moves. The same is true in A2 3-6. \\ | ||
| + | B2 1-4 Where all the movements in B1 are in 4 bars, the two changes here are 2 | ||
| + | bars for each change, and should flow smoothly into the circle.\\ | ||
| + | The dance and music have a formal regal feeling.\\ | ||
| + | This dance is for Robin Hayden, who bas helped create a thriving dance | ||
| + | community in the Amberst/Northampton area. | ||
