+ | 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. | ||
