For Bärbel Koch on her 60th birthday, 26 August 2012
The description as originally published had an omission on 17–20. 2nd lady and 3rd man set on [17–18], and only then do they [as written] “dance in, pulling back right shoulder, to finish back to back, facing the place they just left.” [19–20]. Since December 2015 the “original” has been corrected.
