devised: 2025-06-23
notes:
  We discovered the central figure of this dance in a modern English Country Dance: The Pleasure Vest. 

  The dance is dedicated to, and named by, Debbie Saunders of the RSCDS New Jersey Branch, with thanks for her extraordinary help when we tutored RSCDS Teacher Candidate classes. The final trial of the dance took place in Debbie’s home, in Lowell Court, Mahwah, New Jersey in June 2025.

  Devised "to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the London Gay Gordons group which was founded in October 2005 by Daniel Capron and John Tyler. The two right hands across at the top and bottom represent XX which is 20 in Roman numerals. The combined path of 1st couple in bars 17-24 is supposed to look like the figure 2 and the final circle is the 0 for 20 years of happy dancing."

notes:
  > The title is short for "The Camel of Hastings Street, London WC1H" which is too much of a mouthful.
  > The camel itself is a gold coloured statue sitting above a doorway, looking down at passers by.
  > It has a saddle for riders, which in my single, never to be repeated, experience of riding a camel, is extremely uncomfortable.
  > The saddle also hides whether there are one or two humps, so this dance features both.
  > Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is also for camels!
  >
  > For the history of the statue see <<https://skinnersarmslondon.com/camel-story>>.

devised: 2005-01-01
notes:
  From the book:

  The dance was originally devised so that after each sequence, not only do the dancers change partners and positions, but the rhythm also changes. However the "medley" could also be danced using only two rhythms, i.e. strathspey - jig (reel) - strathspey or jig (reel) - strathspey - jig (reel). Indeed, the "medley" could be danced with only one rhythm throughout - strathspey or jig or reel. The choice is up to you, but it is advisable to inform the dancers (and band) beforehand.

  Years ago when I was in high school a good friend told me about a class his uncle was taking in how to use visualization to help remember a list. Then he told me about the one his uncle used to remember the original 13 colonies in the order in which they joined the union. The fourth image is described “riding on the back of the Jersey cow is King George” (Georgia). It’s now 60+ years later and I still remember the whole sequence, so I decided to use the phrases as titles for some dances; this is the fourth of those dances.

notes:

  The Red Thistles video refers to the dance as "Mishka’s Choice" and it was originally added to SCDDB with that name.
  But <<https://my.strathspey.org/dd/issue/3993/|issue 3993>> pointed out it should be "Mishka's Chase" after the deviser's "bengal cat, Mishka, who likes to chase and be chased, but doesn’t like to be caught."

  The dance has 312 progression so could be danced in a 3 or 4 couple set.

notes:
  John Drewry wrote this dance for Briar Johnstone of Dumfries.

  Further notes from *Greenburn Book 3:*

  1. In May 2000 Jackie Johnstone brought his dog Briar to the Morland Dance Week. (The pronunciation of "Briar" rhymes with "deer".) Briar used to be an Afghan but he shrank in the wash. Unfortunately Jackie did not use "Brand-X" for the laundering process.<BR> Briar attended the dance classes in Morland and attracted a lot of attention from the dancers and, when they heard his sad history, they all said "Oooh Chihuahua!".
  1. _The women use four pas de basque. The men may use pas de basque but on Bars 1-2 they should really use "PAS DE CHIEN"_: i.e. they hop four times on the left foot while holding the right foot in second aerial position.<BR> Alternatively the men may place the left foot in second position for the first hop and then bring it in to third rear aerial position for the second hop and repeat this for the remaining hops.<BR> They then use pas de basque for Bars 3-4.
  1. Bars 17-24 (and 25-32) are a new form of progression which, in Briar's honour, may be called a _"Doglette"_.<BR> (Certainly NOT a "Pussette"! Briar would be horrified at the very idea!!!)

  Devised for <<ddp:Bolton-Maggs, Tim#523>>' 70th birthday in 2015.

  The deviser explains that Tim "invited a group of friends to celebrate the occasion later with him in Budapest,
  his favourite city, and as I was preparing to fly out to join them, two friends whom I shall call 'pests'
  texted me demanding a new dance to be performed there.
  Hence my alternative title 'The Curse of the Buda Pests'
  The figures symbolise friends meeting to have fun then going off to explore the city before dancing together in the evening."

notes:
  In class the sets are always moving around the floor and one night someone mentioned it as drifting and said I should write a dance about it. This is my response. After all, what better way to illustrate drifting than changing partners in the dance. Also, my favorite doo-wop group is The Drifters, so I can honor that here as well. Plus, it offers another twist on the 3-couple bourrel, a figure I love to experiment with.

  > The title comes from Galileo.
  > His astronomical observations led him to advocate that the Sun was the centre of the solar system and the Earth orbited around it.
  > However the Church authorities, refusing to look through his new fangled telescope, clung to the doctrine that the Earth was the unmoving centre of the universe.
  > Galileo was forced to recant his published scientific opinions after being threatened with torture by the Inquisition.
  > Despite this he was later reported to have said about the Earth “Eppur si muove” (And yet it moves).

  > Galileo was the first to observe the moons of Jupiter, three of which are part of an “orbital resonance”.
  > Io makes four orbits and Europa two orbits for every one orbit by Ganymede.
  > This is illustrated in the figure of bars 5-8 and 21-24 though the demands of choreography require the central pair, representing Io, to defy reality and turn the opposite way from the others.
  > The reel could be taken to represent the wiggles in Saturn's rings caused by small “shepherd” moons;
  > the casting and hands across as the gravitational sling shot manoeuvres used to get observational space craft to the outer planets;
  > and the final circle as the actually rotating and not fixed galactic background.

  Beyond dancing, Mike's passion for viewing solar eclipses have taken them all over the world. You can detect that in the Promenade Chain progression (thanks, Mary!)

  **Anselm says:** In my copy of <<ddpub:Highland Road Collection, The>>, the dance doesn't show up in the table of contents, which refers to a dance called “Christina's Round” that isn't in fact in the book.

notes:
  This dance is for Daniel Capron with many thanks for starting the Gay Gordons group in London in October 2005 and for encouraging me to go along to the first class.
  This has led me to an enduring love of Scottish Country Dancing.
  My involvement in dancing, teaching, devising dances and helping to maintain the Strathspey Database (SCDDB) is ultimately all thanks to Daniel.

  Daniel liked dances which have symmetry, such as Mairi's Wedding, and the subtitle reflects his own two weddings to other men.
  Daniel was very pleased that recent RSCDS guidelines now acknowledge that dancers may like to dance with anyone on either side of the set.

  I wrote this dance when I learned that Daniel had terminal cancer.
  He was able to see the video which was filmed soon afterwards but sadly died a few weeks later in May 2025.

  Ian Robertson subsequently composed an <<ddt:Reel for Daniel#16127|original tune>> for the dance - though the video used <<ddrec:8 x 40 Reels#5560>> from <<dda:Waverley Station: First Stop!#436>> by <<ddp:David Knight, Liz Donaldson & Ralph Gordon#2885>>.

notes:
  If you look at the original description for the dance you may wonder about bars 25–32: The ladies are coming out of a right hands across, i.e., they're moving clockwise, but the promenade at the end of the first part goes *anticlockwise*? This is obviously completely counterintuitive, and therefore one must not wonder that it is generally – see Keith Rose's diagram – not actually danced that way, except if one is in Edinburgh and Bill Hamilton is present (he is, however, no longer in a position to complain since he shuffled off this mortal coil in 2021). To be fair, it should be mentioned that Bill Hamilton noticed quite quickly that the anticlockwise promenade perhaps wasn't the greatest of ideas, but he still insisted on the dance as written because he didn't want to change the published description. – The Society republished the dance in <<ddpub:Thirty Popular Dances, Volume Two>> and, as usual, masterfully avoids taking sides in the debate; instead, it leads its readers right into the trap by means of the completely unhelpful explanation, “All four couples dance a promenade round to own places” (which is identical for bars 25–32 and 97–104).

  The other place where the published and the popular forms of the dance differ concerns the circle at the very end. Officially, this goes first to the right and then to the left (as a mirror image of the circle at the start of the dance), but it is common to keep going in the same direction (right) throughout the final 8 bars. It may be advisable to seek a consensus before the dance starts in order to avoid struggles, collisions, or dislocated shoulders.

Do not touch anyone during the dance! And if you wear gloves, that's great**.  
  This dance is about the fact that you can love and interact, even if all the devils have trampled on you at once.

  The pattern represents the Black Watch cap badge design.  In some areas the custom is that inner dancers who pass to corners do not first swivel to face inwards, but, like those in the centre, swivel during the setting.

  A comment made by David Queen on the Scottish Country Dance teachers (07/2017):
  "Dad wrote the dance in 1959 and the first version started with a reel of 4 on the sides, then he changed it to the dance in movement which defines the dance." (**Note**: in Nov 2025, David Queen confirmed that his original post mentioned "1969", which was a typo and he meant 1959.)

  The notes also explain that Angus MacLeod, co-founder of the Clan MacLeod Pipe Band, was formerly Pipe Major of the Black Watch, and one of the leading pipers in the country.

  Duke of Perth has never been an official Scottish or British title. It was granted to James Drummond, then Earl of Perth, by the deposed and exiled King James II and VII in 1701, although some sources give 1695. The Drummonds remained loyal to the Stewart cause and the 2nd Duke was, as they say, »out« with the Old Pretender in 1715. Both of his sons were with Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745. The 3rd Duke died on board a ship fleeing after Culloden and his brother, the 4th Duke, died in fighting in Holland in 1747.

  The family tree gets very complicated after the 4th Duke but John Drummond, currently 9th Earl of Perth is accepted as the Jacobite 15th Duke of Perth.

  > The low temperature phenomenon of superconductivity is due to electrons forming pairs to navigate the metal lattice without losing energy.
  > These "Cooper Pairs" were named after Leon Cooper who first proposed this explanation, together with John Bardeen and John Schrieffer.
  > The trio were awarded the 1972 Nobel Prize in Physics.
  > This dance, which is a member of the 10 bar phrase Cooper clan, has five such pairs (or couples) hence the title.

  This dance was devised by <<ddp:Wilkinson, John>> at the request of <<ddp:Anderson, Marian>>, to be danced to the tune <<ddt:To Pauline>>. The tune was composed by Marian in memory of the late Pauline Inghammer and was played as a slow air by Marian at Pauline’s funeral. The dance notes say “This dance is intended to have a great deal of eye contact throughout and first couple can flirt with each other and the others during the dance - hence the title”.

During the interval there was a display by the Branch demonstration team and this dance captures the atmosphere of the occasion."

notes:
  The dance is meant to be danced 6 times through, other than our database suggests. We currently can't fix that (2025-11).

  The instructions for this dance have both Right and Left handed versions.
  The notes explain that:

  > The versions should be danced alternating Right and Left.
  > After the first time through the order is 3, 1, 2 and the new top couple commences.
  > After six times through, all three couples have danced both Right and Left versions.
  >
  > Note: in this dance, the ghost particles (ladies or men) change state without interacting.
  > There are three types of neutrinos (electron, muon, tau), which oscillate between their mass states (1, 2, 3) whilst travelling.
  > Often termed ghost particles as they rarely interact, in this dance the ghost lady or man changes between 1, 2 and 3 in the reels.
  >
  > The Right-handed version represents neutrinos and the Left-handed version represents anti-neutrinos.
  >
  > This physics inspired dance (devised by a physicist) was first tested at the 2024 St Andrews Summer School where it was danced by a set of six physicists with live music played by another physicist including a physics-related tune composed by yet another physicist.

  Choreographed for the recommended recording "Fantasia Veneziana (In La Maggiore)" by Rondò Veneziano (CD “Fantasia Veneziana”). It is danced as a reel.

  "Dedicated to Axel Röhrborn, founding member of Erlanger Tanzhaus e.V., a wonderful dancer, patient teacher and very good friend with great thanks for more than 30 years of instructing dances and dancing with us.
  The dance was created in autumn 2022 when Axel decided to retire from organizing dance events and teaching after his 84th birthday!"

  The dance "combines figures and requests which always have been leading for Axel’s selection of dances:  
  - bringing people together in circles or squares,  
  - attractive knots and unusual ways,  
  - small surprises... - you will miss the 8th bar in the refrain!  
  The recommended music is building a bridge between historic and modern dance music according to Axels favorite dance eras from late 17th century up to modern American Barn Dances and Scottish Country Dancing."

  Various versions of this dance exist.  In March 2007 there was a discussion on the Strathspey List
  (messages <<sspey-thread:48324>>, <<sspey-thread:48328>>, <<sspey-thread:48344>>)
  of a variant in a 3C/4L set,  8 x 48.  In that version, on [45-48],  each couple turns to the correct side to proceed.

  In alternative versions the bars  [9-16] and [17-24] can be interchanged, then 1W starts through and down on bar 9.

  The version given in <<link:thereel/18||3>> is the 40 bar version. It is attributed to <<ddp:Bankart, Patrick#908>> and entered in the database as <<ddd:#16959>>. See discussion in <<https://my.strathspey.org/dd/issue/2369/|issue 2369>>. The implication of the notes in The Reel are that this 48 bar version, attributed to Jack McConachie, may be one of the later "folk" variants of the dance.

  Devisers’ Notes: 

  Bars 9-24: In the rotating reel (as a corner dancer) be sure after passing right shoulder to first woman or man that you keep RIGHT to dance the rotation. First couple also need to be generous with their phrasing and allow the corner dancers to have the space to complete the rotation, there is plenty of time for first couple to complete their part of this formation. 

  Bars 25-32: If this is proving a mission with your group, the alternative is to dance 6 hands round and back. 

  Again with this dance as with Dave Macfarlane's Reel after the second time through the original 1st couple stay in third place and move down on 3-4 of the second repeat. Shown on the You Tube Clip. 

  This dance was devised to celebrate the 40th birthday of Brian (Ginger) Richards. Brian's three great passions are Jenny Richards (his wife), Scottish country Dancing and Fishing (not necessarily in that order!). Jenny asked us to devise this dance and put in movements that Brian loves. 

  The movements in this dance represent the collection of the boat (1-8), the throwing out of the first line (9-12), a tiddler escaping (13-16, where the corners return safely home), and then the big catch (28) which is hauled aboard (29-32). 

  The formations we have used were obvious to us. When you have seen Brian's enthusiasm and the way he has introduced these movements into other dances, they are logical choices.

  >The word strathspey comprises ‘strath’ a valley and ‘spey’ the Scottish river. The Victoria Bridge is a
  footbridge built to replace a ferry crossing and this dance commemorates its 120th Anniversary. The
  suspension bridge was constructed in 1902 over the River Spey, which runs through the Balmoral Estate
  in the Cairngorms, from a £500 donation given following a drowning from the ferry, by Aberlour distillery
  owner, James Fleming who sadly, never saw it built, as he died in 1895. The toll was one penny. The first
  two formations in the dance depict both the catenary and the river below.

notes:
  This dance was written in frustration as I searched for appropriate dances for a ball program. Most strathspeys with a poussette are for two couples and I couldn’t find a dance with the combinations of figures I wanted, so I wrote one that combines some of my favorite strathspey figures.

  Devised August 2019, Revised October 2019

  This dance was inspired by the wonderful <<ddrec:Set of Song Airs#10275>> on <<dda:Dancer's Best Friend, A#1118>> by the trio, Terpsichore.  Since this set of airs is 6x32 bars, the dance was envisioned for a three-couple set.  However the dance could be done as a standard two couple dance in a four-couple set.

  As reported in <<https://my.strathspey.org/dd/issue/3460/|issue 3460>>, when adopted by the RSCDS and published in Book 53 the RSCDS chose to describe it as for a four-couple set and also replaced the deviser's original choice of music by a completely different set of tunes.

  Both the <<ddrec:Set of Song Airs#10275|original>> and RSCDS recordings are linked to the dance entry.

  Note:  The Rose Progression was devised by Rod Downey of New Zealand.

  danced it for her. The club ran a Children’s Class for many years in 1960s & 70s under the instruction of Colin Garrett, Rosemary Crawford and Stephen Webb.

  The dance was devised to celebrate her love of life and SCD. Maguy loved slow airs and her favourite figures were the poussette all round, the bourell and tandem reels and these figures form the basis of this dance.
  Stephen danced this dance with Maguy in Lyon on 25 May 2007. Maguy took SCD to heaven in July 2007.

  This dance may also be used by anyone to say thank you to anyone else because, sometimes, we just don’t say it enough.

notes:
  The name of the dance refers to both the mountain Lion's Head which along with Table Mountain welcomes visitors to Cape Town, as well as the crest of the Clan Macgregor which is also the Lion's Head. This dance was devised for Dame Judith Macgregor, British High Commissioner to South Africa, to celebrate her first visit to the Cape Town Caledonian Society for our Burn's Night Supper. We were later to learn that both Judith and her husband John are enthusiastic Scottish Country dancers who would regularly join us on the dance floor. This dance turned out not be the first one devised in their honour — Susi Mayr had devised "The Ambassador's Reel" for them when John was the ambassador to Austria.	
  	
  Christof, who is now 15 years old, composed five reel tunes for this project on request and initially they were just named one, two, three, four and five. This was the fifth tune and when it was linked to this dance, retaining "Five" as the title seemed quite apt.

  Ullswater is a lovely lake in the Lakes District, we visited after "Downey Day of Dance 2018". The "Way" is a walk around the lake, of which we did the part to Howtown from Glenridding. The recommended tune is "Barley Cakes" which is traditional, the lead tune for "Barley Bree" from Book 13, and I would recommend either the recording by The Carfuffle Ceilidh Band, or either of the society recordings for book 13 (Neil Barron and Bobby Crowe) would be excellent.

devised: 2011-11-22
notes:
  Devised 22/11/2011. This was inspired by working through Hugh Foss's fugues
  this year, particularly the fugues in the Glendarroch leaflets. Foss's idea of
  taking a theme (here clearly back to back) and working the whole dance around
  it was really interesting to our group. Thanks to the group, especially John
  Homes and Tom Cole, for suggestions which made the last 4 bars reasonable.
  This particular dance was inspired by Stroangassel. Stroangassel is a hill in
  Scotland with a fairy ring. Stranfasket Hill is very close to Strongassel. Hence
  the title. I would recommend a steady 4 by 48 jig with strong 2 bar phrases.
