These dances were compiled by the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society Nova Scotia Branch. Twenty-one of the dances were published in Spark O’ Water, Dances of Nova Scotia in 2017 to celebrate the Branch’s 35th Anniversary. The rest of the dances were submitted for consideration for publication, but, due to technical restrictions, could not be included in the booklet. It seemed a shame that all the dances could not be shared, so the decision was made to create this document with all of the submitted dances.

The original booklet has an accompanying CD featuring the wonderful fiddle and piano music of Keith Smith and Muriel Johnstone. The CD is called Spark O’ Water, Music for Scottish Country Dancing.

The original booklet and CD are available for purchase from the RSCDS Nova Scotia Branch. (http://www.rscdsnovascotia.ca).
