Blazeing Star Longways Country Dance, triple minor From 12 Minuets & 12 Dances, by Michael Dabney 1-4: 1s and W2 circle 3 5-8: 12 and M2 circle 3 Timing here is challenging,so hard to make it phrase: 1-8: 1s cross over 2s and down, cross over 3s and down (now proper), up the middle to the top and cast down to second place. 1-4: Circle 1x, 5-8: starting partner, four changes no hands (brisk!) at the top ALAN'S NOTES For some reason the circle is notated as right but I don't see what that buys you. This could maybe be a duple minor where the 1s visit the next 2s, but I think the 2s have to be on it about moving up as soon as the 1s cross, and the whole thing has to stay tight. In a duple that's a circle four; in a triple, circle 6. 8 bars The first couple circles with the second lady, then with the second man 8 bars First couple go around opposite, then around third neighbour, lead to the top and cast into second place 8 bars All 6 circle right, then four changes of a circular hey at the top
