CHARLENE'S CELEBRATION NIB, Gary Roodman, "Prime Calculated Figures" Tune: "Elizabethan Tango Man" by Charlene Thomson https://www-ssrl.slac.stanford.edu/~winston/mydances/charlenes_celebration.pdf Longways for four couples BPM: 118 Key: Am Meter: 3/2 A1: MIRROR-IMAGE HEYS FOR FOUR 1s and 3s (odds) face down; 2s and 4s face up; complete hey for four (Begin: odds split evens to begin) back to places, 3 beats per pass. A2: 1-4: In fours, right-hand star, left-hands back into: 5-6: Still in fours: Quick half-poussettes (maintaining momemtum CCW) 7-8: current ends cast to middle WHILE current middles lead out to ends. B 1-3: In Same fours, starting partner, do three changes of a circular hey, no hands (start partner) 4: Middles do a fourth change by L in the "wrong" direction along the line (ends just turn around, get ready to come back in) 5-6: In _new_ fours, 1st corners cross, then 2nd corners cross. 7-8: Circle four-hands halfway. NOTE: This is kinda confusing, but very cool, and a swell tune (sounds a little Russian to me, but anyway it's swell.) Tune wsa written in remembrance of Caarlene's brother, Herman Luebke. Bruce's teaching notes: * The starting positon can also be thought of as "ends face in, middles face out" * It's important that couples spend a bar turning around at each end. * One of the hard things is finding the new first corners for B:5.
