CINDERELLA WALTZ.
longways duple, waltz time, 32-bar
Alan's free interpretation
"My love is like a red, red rose" is a nice tune
There's a Rossini "Cinderella Waltz" current from 1829 forward; don't like it
as much.
Interpreted in 2008, brought it out in 2013 and have used it at many venues.


American dancing master, and ball-room prompter: containing about five hundred
dances ... By Elias Howe ..  1862

First lady and second gentleman balance and turn--first gentleman and second
lady balance and turn--two couples waltz down the centre and back--right and
left four.

A1: 1-4: W1 and M2, chassez individually right, and right, and left
         and left, finishing close to corner.
    5-8: same two, CROSSED-hand turn 1.5; fall back into corner's place.

A2: 1-8: As above with M1 and W2. (all progressed and improper)

B1: 1-3: All open waltz down the center;
      4: California Twirl to end facing up proper 
    6-8: open waltz back to place and face partner.

B2: 1-8: Four changes of rights and lefts with hands.

NOTES 

B1: The away-toward-away-twirl sequence of the first four bars is zesty
and pleasing to people who can manage it; in a crowded room or with a lot of
people who really don't get that it's away-toward, you might as well do only
two measures of open waltz and take two measures (six steps) to cross and face
up.

B2: At an outdoor Civil War ball where getting people to do a
non-Sicilian-equal duple minor is challenging enough, I convert B2 into Circle
L, Circle R, turn your backs on that couple and face a new couple.
