Hi Joseph,
Middlemarch (ECD Waltz time) has Allemandes turning into Orbits.
Depends whether you want the Orbiters to continue in the same direction, or
turn back to go the opposite way. That is a common figure known as Allemande Orbits – you
can see it in Sun Skip:

Subject: [Callers] Aurora O’More
This title and concept for a dance burst into my head during the recent auroras.
It ought to have shifting wavy lines, of course, and is there a way to have an orbit
around a star? Ooh! A hands across star where a pair spits out and goes outward and into
orbit…
Anyway, I don’t have the compositional chops to develop it in a timely way, but I would
love to see it exist. If my notion inspires anyone to write it, hooray.
