Devised 25 July, 2010. Given to Xiaowen Yu (daughter of Monica). The first 16 bars are taken from a a dance devised by Iain Boyd which in turn uses an idea by Alec Hay.

Recommended music is “An’ Thou Wert My Only Dear” preferably played ABABAB, and there is no recording of this with only 3 repetitions. The RSCDS recording of Book 21 by John Renton and his band, track 3 is an excellent 8 by 32 version. Acceptable alternative music would be “Balcomie House” as recorded by e.g. The Lothian Band (“In Strict Tempo”, track 1) or The Irvine Valley SCD Band (Favourite SCD’s Vol 3, Teacher’s Choice, track 11)
