Tune choices 
If you have live music available, choose a 32-bar waltz you like, with clear
phrasing and 2-bar emphasis in the B.  (Utpik Waltz played AB is a good
choice.)  Even within that shape, many different
emotional effects are available depending on tune.

For recordings, surprising how few in my collection are 4x(AB).

Rodney Miller & Elvie Miller - Spyglass Waltzes
----------------------------------------------------
Home to the Valley (ends on the 5th A, beautiful, upbeat)
Valentine's in Nantes (jaunty)


Vivian Williams - Waltzes
--------------------------
Emma (lushly romantic, spare setting,  4x)
Good Neighbor waltz (really Victorian sound, 4x, right phrassing)

Amarillis - Waltzing in the Trees
----------------------------------
Fair Haired Lass (steadily builds in intensity)


Terpsichore - Caledonian Muse
-----------------------------
Catherine's Waltz  (sparkly, happy, not saccharine)


solo dance, dancer in the middle of a plus-sign with the ends N, E, S, W,
facing North to start.

A (four leaf clover)

4 bars: Go round N by right shoulder, finish facing W
4 bars: Cast left to go round E by LEFT shoulder - easiest to finish facing SW
4 bars: Swivel enough to go round S by right shoulder, finish facing NE
4 bars: Cast L to round W LEFT shoulder, finish facing E

Note that starting the clover will often but not always feel like casting;
go with it.

B (windowbox)  [Stay facing the same direction through the entire B]


2 bars: chasse/sidestep right twice (toward S on NS line)
2 bars: single steps forward starting on foot closer to home

        (whatever's a comfortable distance; toward SE corner)

2 bars: chasse/sidestep left twice (N direction to E on outer line)
2 bars: single steps backward to center spot

2 bars: chasse/sidestep left twice (toward N on NS line)
2 bars: single steps forward (starting on foot closer to home)
        (toward NE corner)

2 bars: chasse/sidestep right twice (S direction to E on outer line)
2 bars: single-step back to center place, facing E.

Note: You may enjoy adding hand/arm motion on the sidesteps.  Feel free!

Dance starts again with E as N.  Four times through the pattern gets you home.
