Authority: Wilson, Thomas

Notes: Note: Wilson's figures suggest a 16 bar arrangement, but sources provide 24 bars of music. Such mismatches are not unusual. We've choreographed the dance to match the music.

This dance is reconstructed from an authentic source as noted above, but you might encounter it being taught in a different fashion. Popular dances were often published more than once, sometimes with different figures, or even with different tunes; our version is faithfully reconstructed and historically informed, but alternative arrangements can be equally satisfying
