Dance Video High Society (Video 3)
(No short description)
The reel from RSCDS Book 46 danced by members of the RSCDS Western Australia branch.
It should be noted that in this performance, arms are raised at the start of the allemande and not during the end of the previous right hand turn. This is the preference of both the devisor, John Brenchley and of Barbara Boyd, for whom the dance was written.
