Hello Chris
Sarah's Journey would probably be one of my top five or ten, but not thetop one
None of the others on your list (at least the 50% for which I had familiarity or could
find on the internet) would make my top ten list.

Subject: Re: [Callers] What is the best contra dance(s) ever written?
A lot of it is very personal -- what you were exposed to, what was your original
"tradition," whether that started in 1958 or 2009.
There's also context. Favorite for me as a dancer is a bit different than favorite for
me as a caller.
My favorite is probably 333, with a B2 that varies from year to year. (Right now it's
chain, star left.)
A couple years ago I wrote a longer list of favorites here:
http://chrispagecontra.awardspace.us/choreography/index.htm
If I were updating the list, I'd delete one or two, and add several. (At least Quick
Spin, Bicoastal Contra, Fatal Attraction, Contra Primer, Heart of Glass, O'Brien's
Star, Oak Hill Quickstep, and Yankee Reel.)
