Spice it Up 8x32 J

Posted by merrill on Mar 17, 2008 in Jigs

SPICE IT UP

32 Bar Jig for 3 couples in a 4-couple longwise set

1-8 1s lead down the middle and up
9-16 1s, 2s and 3s dance 3 couple Allemande
17-20 3s and 2s set and link (two top couples) Finish 2, 3, 1
21-24 3s and 1s set and link (two bottom couples) Finish 2, 1, 3
25-28 2s, 1s, 3s set and cross RH.
29-32 2s, 1s, 3s chase halfway round, to finish 3, 1, 2*
  Repeat having passed a couple.

*Please Note: This dance has an unusual progression, with the 3rd couple at top place after the first turn of the dance. The original 2s are top couple on the 4th repetition of the dance.

A lively jig is recommended. I use Marianne Anderson’s Kangaroo Paw, Cut #14

Devised by: Merrill Heubach (nika [at] eastlink.ca), Lunenburg, NS

UPDATE 20 March 2008: Bars 25-32 corrected
UPDATE 24 March 2008: Explanation of progression corrected
