  This video shows a variant of the Dundee Reel as described in the Border Book.  The "RHA" of bars 9-12 is replaced by 6 hands round to the L, and "Lead down and up" in [17-24] is replced by "slip down and up".  Also most of the steps are closer to walking.

  NB: although the dance was originally devised for 2C in a 4C set, here it is performed in a 2C set, so after the first time through there is a new top couple for the second time through (with the former top couple dancing as the second one).
  The musicality of some dancers should be improved, and one should pay attention to completing the steps at the end, but the video gives good impression of the dance choreography and the transitions between the formations and steps.

  Findhorn Medley (32J/32S/32R), performed by the Waltham Scottish Country Dance Group at the ASCDS Festival on 11 May 2019

  NB the last 8 bars of the reel section in this performance differs from the version of the dance summarised in the MiniCrib (which follows the original instructions). See the Extra info for the dance for the details.

  This is the most brilliant dance I know and when it turned out that several people at Pinewoods 2017 had not done it we took over a pavilion and did it (twice through).  The recording is of the original tunes by Janet Kurnick performed by Patti Cobb and James MacQueen.

  During the first repeat the set struggles a bit to keep up with a fast track. This is exacerbated in bars 25-32 by them trying to follow the petronella turns with extra setting steps which are not in the instructions and therefore they do not have time for the final left hand turns. Thereafter it gets increasingly chaotic. With instructions and diagram to hand you may get the general idea of whats supposed to happen. They are at least having fun.

  Three times through, once each couple, in a three couple set with the last few bars adapted to get the 1st couple to the bottom. Part of a longer display.

  Danced four times in an adaptation for a three couple set: 1st couple here cast off to the bottom (instead of to 2nd place) at the end of the promenade. This clip starts with the dancing. The whole video begins with a walk through.

  The polite turn at the end of rights and lefts the second time is omitted -- Tim was explicit that it should be included, as it  is in the first time through.  The dance is intended as a 3 cpl dance in a 4 cpl set, but has been modified here to be a 3 couple set.

  This clip has four repeats (earlier in the video the camera is moving around). The very experienced dancers here are  doing the variation with mirror reels of three on the sides in bars 9-16 instead of the default figures of 8 on the sides for 1st couple alone.

  Once through as part of a longer Newcastle demo. The dance is slightly adapted:  
  - on bars 1-8 both 1st and 3rd couples are dancing instead of just 1st couple;  
  - after the hands across figures of bars 17-24 the orientation of the set is rotated 90 degrees.

  First part of a Newcastle display. Excellent dancing and a lot of fun, but all the umbrellas make the choreography a little hard to follow! The end is also adapted to lead into the next dance. Its all a bit too (delightfully) distracting to be of much use in learning the dance.

  Three times through in a 3 couple set with 1st couple slipping to the bottom each time. The half reels in bars 9-12 and 21-24 should be left shoulder but are here danced right shoulder both times. This means 1st couple dance round 1st corner position twice in a row instead of just for the first half diagonal reel. They are having fun, but its not a good example to follow.

  Twice through in a 3 couple set as part of a longer demo. The dance is adapted with a 3 couple poussette at the end instead of a 2 couple poussette. Here 2nd and 3rd couples add polite turns after the half rights and lefts of bars 5-8 whereas the crib suggests they should not.

  Excellent dancing. However the dancers closest to the camera are doing an adaptation for four dancers instead of three. The two pairs at each end are dancing reflected footwork in the setting parts (as are the lines of three behind them). A very impressive demonstration which is faithful to the spirit but not the letter of the original.

  Open air dancing in the sun under the walls of Roslin Castle.  Long line of sets, some poorly lit.  Videoed from a lower position, and panning from set to set.  Quite some inexperienced dancers, often missing the L shoulder pass on bar 24.   Not very useful for learning the dance.  8 times through.

  From the web; shows how the dance can look in a non-RSCDS environment.

  The Kandahar reel was written by two officers of The Black Watch, 3rd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland to mark the Battalion's operational tour in Afghanistan. Soldiers of The Black Watch made frequent use of Chinook Helicopters with their signature double rotor blades and they were often supported by American Army Black Hawk helicopters with a single rotor. The dance reproduces the use of these workhorses of the sky upon which the Army relies in Afghanistan.  The rotors go 1 1/2 times round, to symbolize the "150% commitment" expected.

  The reel is danced to Mr Jamie Forrester's Kandahar Reel or the Auld Reekie Band's Speed the Plough.

  The dance instructions (Collins book, p. 220) for bars 9-16 say "Pas de Basque | Coupé ; repeat".  In this video the set dances "Coupé | Pas de Basque ; repeat". 

  For bars 33-40 the instructions tell 2nd couple not to move on bars 35-36, but to step up together with 3rd and 4th couples on 39-40.  In this video 2c steps up on [35-36]

  Incorrect music.  Bars 1-2 not danced as written.  For the last 16 bars top two couples should be standing.  But competently done otherwise.

  At the end the outside couples dance a 3/4 chase.  This is a common variant in social dancing; it should be 3/4 Hands Round, much more difficult.  The clapping and extra twirls are not "official".

  Beautiful dancing but the choreography is heavily modified for this demonstration. Bars 1-16 for 1c+3c and 17-32 for 2c+4c are condensed into 16 bars with all couples dancing; bars 49-64, a repeat of 33-48, are skipped as are the last 8 bars. Great to watch but not so useful for learning the dance.

  On [5-8] and [13-16] the top couple should make a 3/4 turn and cast off to 5th place.  In three of the four occastions, the top couple in this video dances down omitting the turn.

  Danced at the "Schiehallion SCD Group" ball in Roosendaal, Netherlands, on 3 march 2013.

  The full video is longer, but only this last time through gives a clear view of the dance.  Note that for bars [17-24]; the arch should be made on [19], and the three other couples should start to dance down at the same time; this set is 2 bars late, and therefore starts the Allemande late.

  This clip starts with an introduction to the dance which beings at 0:58. Good dancing though the view is a bit too close.

  Part of a longer demo, with 8 couples dancing a compound choreography based on this dance. Nice to look at, danced at demo level, but of no use for learning or following Largo bay

  Excellent dancing, but most of this demo uses two 2C sets joined at the bottoms, and dancing in mirror image to each other. The "down the middle and up" is modified by adding a RHA. That makes the video unsuited for learning the dance.

  The video is in error.  The Promenade is danced for bars 25-28, the Grand Chain for 29-32.  The Promenade should be from 25-32, the Grand Chain from 33-40.

  Also, on 13-16 the Women should dance Left Shoulder round the Man and out, not dance backwards.

  Dancers clothed in "Old Style".  Camera position and coverage very erratic, often showing only a small part of the 8C set. It is impossible to really follow the dance. The set deviates from the instructions on bar 5-6 and 13-14 by making lines across. Danced twice through, with the third time finishing in a muddled way.

  Demo, danced in a 3C set. Poor viewpoint (too low). Systematic errors: 1M starts Lsh to 2cnr in the Figure of 8 and 1c makes a LH turn to face 1cnrs; at the end 1c makes RH turn to side instead of Petronella).  Not suitable for learning the dance.

  Open air demo on grass, in a 4C set.  Reasonable point of view. Systematic formation errors: in the figure of 8 1M starts Lsh to 2cnr.  The 1c meet below 3c, and do the "hello-goodbye" setting with 3c (moved up to 2pl) and 4c, and step to 4pl (4c up) after their turn. At the end 1c turns RH instead of dancing a petronella to the sidelines.  Unsuitable for learning the dance.

  Once through only.  Clear view from the side. Bars 33-48 have a modified progression to rearrange the dancers for the following dance in the demonstration. Here all three couples are dancing for 8 bars in the opening Inveran Reels although the instructions say they should be 6 bar reels followed by 1st couple crossing.

  In this video, first couple start and finish on opposite sides. 1C does not make the full turn after the Ladies' Chain to enter the Poussette.  This option makes for a more natural transition from the hands across to the line across.  In the "Pilling" diagrams, 1c starts and finishes on own side.

  8 times through, good dancing. However, all first couples are slow to dance up on [31-32], so that they are late for setting to the corners.  Note that the Manual recommends a phrasing that disagrees with the book 9 description.

  The deviser, Darrick Wong, gives background information from 0:40, with a quick recap starting at 1:07.


  The dance itself starts at 2:31, and is danced 4 times through (of 8).  It is an older version of the current dance, where 1c turns 1 1/2 instead of 2 times on (11-14), and the arches on [15-16] are missing.  The Baratte is danced facing down, and there is only a (too) short turn to face 1st corners.

  This is a poorly recorded video, and the dancing is mediocre. The set goes wrong, and starts again on 1:12.  That failed part has been blocked here.  The video has the name "The Glens of Angus", but it is Drewry's Tappie Toorie.  Another video from the same occasion shows this dance being taught.

  The video was uploaded by "Heidi Afschar".  Her photograph can be found on http://rscds-losangeles.org/PDFs/GC_Mar12.pdf.

  Danced in very small sets in a full dance hall, making the figures hard to follow; good viewpoint, but mediocre lighting.

  In the first part of this video the MC gives a recap of the dance.

  Johnsonville SCD Club hosted the New Dancers' Celebration in Wellington, New Zealand this year. The dance was held at the Newlands Centennial hall and Lynne Scott and Associates provided the music. Jean Malcolm and Richard Hardie are the band's other members. "The Kingston Flyer" was devised by Noeline O'Connor and takes its name from a well-known South Island tourist train. Our MC was Johnsonville club tutor Rod Downey. Oh, and please note the bunting around the hall - this was its first outing. Several of Johnsonville's new members held a bunting bee, using donated tartan and plain fabric.

  The dance should end with the 1s pulling back right shoulder to swirl into place, optionally they may swirl round each other into place.  Note that the figure in bars 17-24 is quite long, it is based on the Thomas Wilson's (no relation) 1811 description of the figure that morphed into what is now called Double Triangles.

  The final swirl into place is omitted by the second couple dancing.  The optional long swirl into place is not performed.  
    
  Recorded at the interval at the San Francisco monthly party March 3, 2018.

  Five couples Round the Room. Twice through.  Contrary to the instructions, the cross [7-8] is danced LH.

  For this demo, the dance has been modified by keeping the couples together. In the original instructions, the Men stop the final promenade on bar 28, and the Women dance on, past one man and join the next as their new partner, to continue.

  The dance ending of the second time through has also been modified, the dancers moving into the longwise set for the next demo.


  The information for this dance has been derived from the video taken at Birmingham, Scottish dancing at Friday Folk New Year's Eve Party 2012. See http://youtu.be/S_6xmqAc9RE, from 2:20 to 3.20

  The video calls the dance "Mairi's Wedding", but 1c always passes R shoulder in the middle ("Mairi's Divorce").  There is slight change to the figures, so that 1c ends in 3rd place, and then makes a turn and cast to reach 4th place when the next couple starts. 4 times through.

  The dancing is good, and the dance is fully "called" during the video, but the camera position and the fraction of the set shown change so often and so suddenly that only experienced dancers can follow the dance.  Video unsuitable for teaching.

  Towards the end of the dance, most couples finished the dance with a birl instead of turning with the right hand. 
  There were one or two 5 couple sets in the Hall so Ian Muir kindly played the music 10 times through.  Therefore the first and second couples in the other sets got an extra turn.

  This video was made at Kuckucksnest, Schluechtern, Germany.

  It shows a truncated, 40-bar, version of this 48-bar dance. Basically, bars 9-24 are replaced by parallel figures of 8 round 1c and 3c.  Changes are also made to the reels.  Consider this video as giving a general impression of the original dance, not as an example from which to learn.

  The pipe tune used is not the Jigtime Polka, but the dance is in fact the Garry Strathspey, contrary to what someone states in one of the comments. It is danced by two all-female sets viewed from behind the ladies' side. (You can tell it is behind the ladies' side because first couple dances up the middle on bars 13-16). Some mistakes and false starts, but a good overall impression of the dance.

  The sets are on stage in the back of the hall, viewed over the heads of the audience, and show only the heads and bodies.  It is well-nigh impossible to follow the dance, unless you know it well.  Useless for learning or teaching.

  The Tawa SCD Club held a "rainbow" night in May 2015. There was no door charge ... as long as you wore colourful clothes. Anyone who dared to wear black, brown, grey or white had to pay a penalty!

  At the beginning of the video are a few bars of the dance missing!  

  Recorded during the Summer Ball 2015 in Sterbfritz/Germany.  This is the Encore, so each dancing couple casts to the bottom when they finish.

  Good dancing in a social setting. Good view from above.

  A note by Robb Quint :  the right-shoulder pass of W1 and M3 on bars 7-8 the first three times through in the video is incorrect.  Elizabeth Campbell was kind enough to confirm directly in Northern Ireland that left-shoulder pass is correct.  Elizabeth herself begins in M1 position; it is not until she is herself dancing M3 fourth time through that the left-shoulder pass is danced correctly.

  The Three-Legged cat' was danced at the Johnsonville SCD Club's tartan night on September 28, 2015, in the Johnsonville School hall, Wellington, New Zealand. Margaret Bailey, who now lives in Nelson, once danced regularly with this club.

  The MC was club tutor Rod Downey, and live music was provided by Mild Heather - ie Wild Heather minus one member: Lynne Scott, Anne-Marie Forsyth and Mary McDonald. Sharlene Penman was overseas at the time.

  Just a note for anyone planning to do this dance in future: After the advance and retire, the first couple should be not so much simply dancing around each other as dancing a close 'gypsy turn'.

  The devisor writes: "The first couple are dancing the interactions between Tripod and Pinky, so dancing around is up close and glaring!"

  So just think of warring cats!

  The recording started late; only the final 2 times through can be shown.  The music quality is poor.

  There is another (3x through) video of this same demo taken from floor level behind 3c position.

  The progression is in error.  On bars [27-28] and [31-32] the circle goes only 1/3 round (instead of 1/2), so the progression becomes (3,1,2) instead of the correct (2,3,1)

  On first time through bars 17-24 are wrongly danced as a 6 bar chase + a 2 bar turn.  It is done correctly the second time (start at 1:05) as a 4-bar chase + a 4-bar turn.  The couples following have difficulties.

  Jim Stott, who is on the Management Board of the RSCDS and an active member of the Aberdeen Branch, began teaching P4/5 pupils at Meiklemill Primary School, Ellon in September 2013 to promote 'Jigs and Reels'.

  The class learned a lot of Ceilidh dances, then were introduced to several dances from the Jigs and Reels pack offered by the RSCDS.

  Jim worked with the teacher to practice steps and formations with her class during the week, and they all gained a Bronze Accreditation Medal and the school got its 'Bronze RSCDS Accreditation'.

  The children passed their Introductory Medal Tests in June 2014 and then learned how to dance 'The Honeymoon' for their Headteacher's retirement in December 2014.

  Medley: Jig - Strathspey - Reel

  This dance has been changed since this Rechberg workshop, where Fred DeMarse taught the original version, which starts with 1c+3c set, petronella.   The definitive version starts with 1c+3c petronella into the center and set.

  Note: Different to what is shown in the video, the final description says that on bars 15-16 ALL couples should set and the final turn on bars 29-32 should be done giving both hands if danced in Strathspey time.

  The video shows "Back to Back" danced on the Saint-Petersburg Lermontov Ball (October 2014). The dance is danced 4 times, once for each couple. For bars 29-32 a variant is danced: instead of dancing out the ends and casting R to 2pl, 1c here dances out the sides, casts R and crosses in to 2pl.  1c then steps/dances down to 4pl.

  Ian F Russell writes:

  “It would appear that the Aberdeen Dem team have the last 8 bars wrong!!!

  The 4 individual arches figures are each 2 bars.

  In the dem, the dancers making the arch who are coming out from the middle are actually using 4 bars, except for the last change (2nd cpl and 1st cpl).

  In the Dem, dancers coming out from the middle during the first 3 changes use an "extra" 2 bars  for the woman to turn under while the next two cpls do their arch figure (ie it becomes a "meanwhile" for these dancers) 

  The last two cpls to change places have to change on the last 2 bars of the dance and so do not have any music to "borrow"!

   

  But Jim tells me that all 4 changes should be "complete" (and the women turned under into place) in 2 bars!

  Jim writes:

   

  The end is in two bar phrases.

  5s make an arch 4s go under.  5th lady goes in front of her of her partner under his right arm to 4th place.

  4s make an arch 3s go under.  4th lady goes in front of her partner under his arm.

  3s Make an arch 2s go under.  3rd lady goes in front of her partner under his arm.

  2s make an arch 1s go under.  2nd lady passes in front of her partner under his arm.”

   Dance devised by Mary Cant to celebrate the opening of the new Fowlis Easter Village Hall in southwest Angus on June 22nd 2002.

  The hall was designed by Iain Dunsire of Battledown Studio, Forgandenny, Perthshire, taking inspiration from paintings of Angus stackyards by the eminent landscape artist James McIntosh Patrick.

  The formations in the dance reflect the architecture of the building. The wheels represent the round stacks of corn; the chase represents the passageways outside the main hall; the reel of four represents weaving in
  and out of the various rooms; and the dance finishes with a celebratory circle representing the main hall, comprised of the two largest stacks.

  The dancers in the video are: Jim McNicol and Joanne Reid, Bruce Marshall and Christine Cant; Bill and Mary Cant, and David and Morag Dorward. The musicians are: Jim Lindsay (accordion), Gillian Ramsay (fiddle), and Graham Sherrit (drums).

  The tunes are: The New Fowlis Hall by Jim Lindsay; The Spider’s Web by Bill Cook; Davie’s Brae by Jim Johnstone; and Hoddum House
  (Traditional).

  From an open air display;  once through.

  Note:  bars 3-4 and 11-12 are done incorrectly.  They should dance "Set and Link", normal for the Women and mirrored for the Men.   In the video, the lower couples do not loop into their new places as in "Set and Link", but dance up, hands held, and slip into place the "short way".

  During the 3rd round of the dance the reel goes south in a serious way (at 2:44 in). The dancers regroup at the end of the phrase and continue without any other major errors.

  Systematic deviation from the instructions. 

  1c omits the second Inveran crossing to finish on opposite side; the instructions say to make a full Inveran Reel and 1c cross at the end

  At bar 16 1st couple ends on the sideline at the bottom, and then sets to 3c up/down. They should end back to back between 3rd couple and set across.

  At bar 24 in the video 1st couple ends on the sideline at the top, and then sets to 2c up/down.
  They should end back to back between 2ndcouple.
  But apart from that is a very good and clear video.

  The SCD Group Hong Kong published this new video, but mistakenly titled it "The Fireside Reel".

  Comment received on 2016-06-07:  This version is incorrectly danced. 1) After the advance and retire, then two hands round with your partner, the 1st couple should cast off and touch hands between the 2s in the centre of the dance, then cast up from below the 3s, meet in the centre after casting in between the 2s, and cast off at the top of the dance to 2nd place. 2) The 1st couple should turn 1st corner and then PARTNER and not go straight to 2nd corner. For these reasons, I don't consider this is a "good" version, at best it's "Social/Informal" and it is misleading.

  True.  Quality set to "block", in agreement with Anselm's suggestion.

  The deviser writes:  In this video the dance is performed incorrectly.  The original instructions clearly state that first woman and second man pass by right shoulders to finish the reel of four across.  This allows dancers to flow from the reel of four into the 'little spiral'.  PLEASE, do not teach dances from a crib unless you already have danced it, and, even then, double check with the original instructions. This plea applies to all dances not just mine.

  Danced at the Spring Fling 2015, held over the weekend of April 17th to the 19th in Hounslow, London.

  On the last day of Spring Fling a dance competition was held to choose a dance for the upcoming Book. In total, 46 dances from around the world were submitted and trialled, with 7 finalists chosen to be voted on by Spring Fling attendees.

  The winning dance, shown here, was the culmination of many hours of devising, dancing and deliberation. It was danced by Spring Fling attendees who, after a long weekend of dancing, with a lot of energy spent (and sleep lost), were up for one more dance!

  Thank you to all who submitted a dance and we are proud to present to you "The Spring Fling Reel".

  Filmed during Summer School 2016 for the RSCDS by Red Barn Studios.

  Note that this video shows 2nd corners, on bar 32, dancing directly from the half diagonal reel of four
  into the left hands across. This is not in the instructions but was unilaterally added by the Summer
  School teachers. In fact, the deviser's original intention was for 2nd corners to finish the half reel of
  four and then pivot right about in place to be ready for the left hands across (as seen in the video
  from the 2015 Spring Fling).

  The video begins with a title mentioning Ian Muir of Prestwick.  I am interpreting this to be the name of the band, not a dance name.  About 15 seconds into the video, the dance title, "The Findlays' Jig" is provided. 

  The video spends much time panning around the room or showing the band.  What is shown here the best we could find, a short section, giving a reasonable impression of the dance once though.

  Note: the video was assembled by alternating two videos, taken from top and bottom of the set.  They are beautifully linked, but the switches between the two views, occuring at odd moments, are confusing as one cannot follow individual dancers, and so learn the dance from the video.  Let's hope for a new video that does not switch viewpoints; that would be more useful.

  In this video the dance is performed as a S32+R32 medley, four times through. The dance description says “This may also be danced as a strathspey”, so doing it as a medley is only logical in order to give each dancing couple the opportunity to experience it both ways.

  Recorded at the Kuckucksnest, 14 April 2017. Music (a spur-of-the-moment arrangement) played by Anselm Lingnau.

  In this display all couples have replaced the "half turn partner" on bars [5-6] and [13-14] with setting.  
  That makes the couples end up on the correct places at the end, but the dancing is just wrong. This error makes the video useless for the database, so I have blocked it.  Eric

  There are lots of great videos of Scottish country dances available, and I use them quite frequently if I want some details about a dance.

  But those video always show the dance from the outside and do not catch a dancer's point of view. And dancing is so much nicer when you are part of the set rather than watching from the sideline.

  I wanted to make a video, which is shot from the inside and provides some immersion feeling. We ran through the dance more than a dozen times and I collated one version from all the takes. I did not succeed of really catching a single dancer's perspective, as the clip from the body cameras were too hectic; but I like the result well enough to share.

  Contains some variations; danced according to description until bar 48 and for bars 81 - 88, but:
  in bars 49 - 64 it's the Grand Chain+Setting (which should be in bars 65 - 80)
  in bars 65 - 80 there's arches+setting, where the description (for bars 49 - 64) specifies couples dancing past each other w. slip-step+BH turn

  Wearing/not wearing the yellow sash is not distinguishing W from M.

  For bars 17-24 the original instructions say:  1st couple turn by the right hand, lead down the middle, cross below 3rd couple and cast up one place on the wrong side (2nd couple move up on bars 19 and 20)

  This agrees with the crib and the diagram.  The video deviates slightly from the instructions, in that 1c already moves down on the second half turn..

  The dancing itself is of demonstration quality.  On [29-30] only 1st couple should set (and cross on [31-32]).  As all couples here set on [29-30], the video has been reclassified as "good".

  The other videos of this dance do not show the different nature of the reels in Tulloch Gorm, instead doing them as in Cadgers in the Canongate.  In the San Francisco branch we have always danced these parallel reels with the 1s crossing home on bars 7&8 so that those bars, and 9&10 become something like a gypsy into a chase.  Quite a nice movement.

  This dance is still being tweaked; it was written in response to a story about a close encounter of the slothful kind, and because the story is so good and we just can't keep straight face, we are dancing with slothful toes.

  The Half Sloth Reel of 4 appropriately takes a full 8 bars.

  Three times through excerpt from a lovely demo display with two back to back sets (joined at 4th couple). One hesitation in moving up during the 2nd repeat.
  In principle 1st couple should give hands when changing places up and down in bars 17-24.

  Ninety years ago, in 1927, the Scottish Country Dance Society held its first Summer School here in St Andrews. In the same year Book 4 was published.  

  To celebrate this occasion the team demonstrated three dances from that book. They started with ‘Torryburn Lassies’ then danced ‘Haughs o’ Cromdale’ and finished with ‘The Merry Dancers’.  The dancers come from Canada, England, Germany, Hungary, Norway and Trinidad. The team was trained by Mervyn Short and accompanied by Robert Mackay on the piano.

  Marjorie McLaughlin writes:  There are three mistakes in the video and, as they are done the same way by all of the dancers, I assume it was taught incorrectly, as opposed to a mistake by a single couple.

  Bars 1 - 2  the ladies dance a Petronella turn to face partners on a diagonal line.  In the video the gentlemen are moving slightly right and left to form a straight line, which is incorrect.  

  Bars 5-8 the turns are Right Hand turns, not two-hand turns as shown in the video.

  Bars 29-32 both couples turn partner Right Hands to face ready for the next repetition, not two-hand turns as shown in the video.

  Cayuga Lake is a beautiful ``finger'' lake in upstate New York. This was danced for the first time here in 1993 in Tawa. Nowadays I  would have had less repetition in the dance, but it is still a reasonable entry in the Cane Toad Collection. This is resurrected from an ancient VHS tape and converted to mp4 by John Patterson. The quality of the recording had deteriorated a wee bit.

  Dance written for the boys (Carlton and Alex) ``joining'' our dancing. This is from 1993, and recorded in Tawa. The music is from Peter Elmes who selected the tunes. This is resurrected from an old VHS tape, and converted into mp4 by John Patterson, hence the deterioration of the video quality. The dancing is good, especially as this was the first time it had been danced.

  This was in fact the first time the dance had been danced. This was by a group of very experienced dancers in 1994. I have recovered this from a video taken at the time. The three tunes used by Peter Elmes are in the title page. I have made no changes to the dance since and the recommended tune is the second in the set.

  Danced at Levin SCD Club, 2018.

  Rather few clear views of one set, so the dance is a bit hard to follow.

  First time danced in 1993 in Tawa. Maureen was a lovely dance teacher from Ithaca in upstate New York, and loved vigorous dances, so I wrote this for her in that spirit. She also was a founder of Moosewood Restaurant. Music was by Peter Elmes. Resurrected from and ancient VHS to mp4 by John  Patterson.

  Danced in 1994 at Tawa. Resurrected from a VHS tape by John Patterson. Watching Iain Boyd and Noeline O'Connor dance together in the Cane Toad Jig is a joy with their lovely covering. Music by Peter Elmes.

  Once per couple (1st couple turning to the bottom on the last four bars) with some walking rather than dancing but choreographically a very clear view.

  Scottish Country Dancing demonstration from 1994 Anzac School, Wellington, in Onslow College. The dances done are Argyll Strathspey, Mrs Stewart's Jig, and The Rose of Glamis. The entry and exit routines were devised by Noeline O'Connor. The music is provided by Peter Elmes, John Smith, and Merren Simmonds. This was resurrected from an old VHS tape, and converted to an mp4 by John Patterson. Sadly the quality is affected by the deterioration of the tape, but the dancing and playing is of quite high quality.

  There is also a simplified version for near beginners  in the instructions. It differs at bars 9-24 which need the most phrasing.  I am not sure why everyone is slenderized. The music I am using is Nottingham Lace recorded live.

  Danced in three couple sets with a modification on bars 27-28 (1st couple cast instead of setting a second time). The first time through is the clearest - after that the camera is moving around.

  Not sure this is 'demo' quality as there is no set music for it!
  Notes:
  (1) the dance is done just three times through
  (2) the transistion to a new top couple bringing in the new third couple as the cross up into the 3pl R&L as the old dancing cpl step down behind them
  (3) at the end of bar 32 the lady may omit the polite turn may to make it easier to get into the  reel but it is possible to do te ;polite turn and get into the reel.

comment:
  Apart from a variety of individual dancers mistakes, the version of the dance being performed here seems to consistently differ from that described in crib and diagram in several places:  
  - in bars 3-4 1st and 4th couples here set on the sides and turn more than once RH instead of petronella and half turning RH;  
  - at bar 32 1st and 4th men do not end the reel of four across by taking RH;  
  - in bars 33-36 1st and 4th couples dance half way round in promenade hold instead of forming one line.  
  NB John Drewry revised this dance but the video shows another variation, neither the original or revised versions.

  Some hesitations and partial mistakes but a clear view of the set and perfectly adequate for learning the dance.
  Note: My Strathspey lists this dance as "Saint" Columba's Strathspey but a common spelling on programmes is "St" Columba's Strathspey.

  After the hello-goodbye setting, 1st couple are here ending (at bar 17) facing their 3rd corner, not their 1st corner and consequently need an additional fast turn at the end of the corner-partner (bar 24) to end back on their own sides.

  First time round the two hand turn (in bars 23-24) is skipped before the circle that should be in bars 25-28. Subsequent repeats are better. Also they consistent start with only 1st couple dancing bars 1-8 whereas Minicrib suggests both 1st and 3rd couples should start.

  Budapest Local Club 07.03.2019.  Note the elegant way 1W and 4W correct a position error on the last 2 bars of the third time through.

  Part of a display, twice through.  Danced in a 3-couple set rather than the 3-couples in a 4-couple set, as devised.

  There is a choreography error around 1:32; in entering the second half reel across First Woman loops around 4W.

  Clan McBedoin SCD group at Association day in Carpentras, France, 2018. The deviser, Erika Ritzau, is dancing as first lady.
  Video no longer available: perhaps changed from Unlisted to Private?

  Video commences at bar 5. The set in front of the microphone does a 'good job'.  In that set, the deviser is dancing as first lady at 00:57.

  I've found that it's quite often that there are people left over for the Dashing White Sergeant.  Rather than having people sitting out, below is a link to a new video showing how to do the dance with 4 rather than 3.    I know it's reeling, thus beyond the pale to many fellow SCD-ers, but please would you consider adding it to your databases.  Iain Ross

  Rachel Pusey, 22 okt. 2017:  At the Heavenly Seventies Party we celebrated with Donna, Jennifer, Linda, Paula and Trudy.
  Trudy devised the dance "Emma's Strathspey" and wrote the lead tune in honor of her daughter.
  Music by Deby Benton Grosjean (fiddle) and Andy Imbrie (piano)

  Twice through as part of a longer demonstration with the last 8 bars of the second repeat adapted for the transition to the next dance.

  One dancer turns away from rather than towards partner during the cast down and back. All couples take hands in the reels though that is not specified in the instructions.

  Twice through this very complex fugal dance. The first time round 1st couples path crossing through reels of three in bars 57-64 causes some confusion. It works better the second time.

  Twice through as part of a longer display medley. Danced here in two 3 couple sets with 1st couple casting to 3rd place in bars 31-32 (instead of 2nd place).

  Twice through as part of a longer display. The end of the 2nd repeat is adapted to lead into the next dance (two sets of 6 hands round replaced by three sets of 4 hands round).
