Once through excerpt from a demonstration medley with two sets joined at 1st couple.
Excellent dancing, though there are two modifications to the dance: (1) on bars 1-2 the two 1st couples join hands to set together instead of singly; (2) on bars 33-36 the 2nd and 3rd couples continue to set advancing through the other set instead of finishing at the top of their own set.
