Dance Video Fireworks (Video 2)
Cambridge University Strathspey & Reel Club, 2023.
Excellent dancing twice through as the first part of a longer demo. It is shown here in two back to back sets, with the 1st couples in the centre, but does not use the original tune. The final diagonal R&L is adapted to lead in to the next dance in the medley.
