Cardross House - a winner.

Peter Price · Nov. 30, 2016, 3:35 p.m.

This is a very good dance and the recorded music (Muriel Johnstone, Keith Smith, and Jim Lindsay) is superb. The dance stays within the traditional forms but there is some subtle play with the elements that makes the dance stand out from the crowd.

On its own merits this dance deserves to be in the standard repertoire - the music takes it to an even higher level.

When I teach the dance and play this music the room becomes quiet, the dancers lose themselves in it and forget to start dancing. Two thumbs up.
