32-bar Strathspey for 3 couples in a 3-couple set
1-8 | All 3 couples dance the petronella figure (petronella turn and set, repeat) to partner's side. |
9-16 | 1C dance in slightly and cast to 2nd place, cross down between 3C, giving LH briefly, and cast up to 2nd place on own sides. 2C step up on bars 3-4 of the phrase. |
17-20 | 1C and dancers in 1st corner positions advance one step and retire on the diagonal; repeat with 2nd corners |
21-24 | All 3 couples dance back-to-back |
25-32 | Diagonal rights and lefts (i.e. half R & L with 1st corners, then half R & L with 2nd corners) |
Music: No designated tune as of yet. Any good Strathspey in the traditional style (i.e. not an air).
Devised in June 2013 by Lara Friedman-Shedlov (lfriedmanshedlov [at] gmail.com) for Janice Lacock, now of Madison, Wisconsin. However, the dance did not actually debut until May 2014, when it was taught to members of the Oslo Scottish Country Dance Group, with whom Janice used to dance.
