The movement “Corner pass and turn” is by John Drewry, and described in the Notes in The Bankhead Book Part 3. The dancing couple pass the corners they are facing who dance towards the centre. The corners turn right hand on bar 2 and dance back to place on bars 3 and 4 as the dancing couple pass the corners, again by the right shoulder, to the centre of the dance.

The Tourbillon progression is by Barry Priddey and appears in Sands of Morar, Book 45.

“The Eddy” is a movement devised by Mary-Jane Lawrie for her dance “The Selwyn Strathspey”. As originally devised it was for three couples and has been adapted for five couples in this dance.
