Presented at “Downey Day of Dance, 2018”. Given to Helen Brown for all her work for the York Branch and her (and Malcolm’s) hospitality to Kristin and me. Recommended music is “The Bob O’ Dowally”, and either of the recordings for Book 2 by Bobby Crowe would be good. Lacking this a strong strathspey should be used (not an air).
