Well, now that it’s been pointed out to me, it seems rather obvious! Doh! I’d like to
think that if I had read the list of tunes in the album before writing that email I would
have figured it out. ha ha
Angela, I like the way your dance matches the feel of the music. The hey in the B part is
so appropriate! I do enjoy when there is an added feature at the end of a hey like an
allemande or a shoulder-round and long swings tire me out so I think experimentation is
certainly in order.

It’s Molly Apple Pye – same name as the dance. A plain vanilla version of the tune can

Angela, I clicked on the link and it took me to the Diversions Leveret album in Spotify
but didn’t identify a specific tune. What is the name of the tune?

PS, here's the tune! A bit below contra tempo in the recording, but still oh so
good.

<https://www.mail-archive.com/callers@lists.sharedweight.net/> Hello all!
In a scene with which I'm sure many of you are familiar, I woke up in the middle of
the night with a tune stuck in my head, and I couldn't fall asleep until I'd
written a dance to go with it.
Let me know if someone's beat me to it:
Molly Apple Pye, Becket
A1: Balance Ring, Petronella
Balance Ring, Pass through up and down
A2: New Neighbor Balance and Swing
B1: Gents start 3/4 Hey across (GL PR LL NR GL PR),
Ladies Ricochet*
B2: Partner Swing
I realize the partner swing in this version is longer than standard, but figure since the
timing can run long for a full hey with ricochet and since the next move is a ring
balance, I don't mind giving the dancers the extra time to get their affairs in order.
;)
*But maybe the timing works better if the Ladies dance a left-shoulder-round instead, to
take up a bit more music? I need to play-test! In that case, the B's would be,
B1: Gents start 3/4 Hey across (GL PR LL NR GL PR),
Ladies Left Shoulder Round
B2: Partner Right Shoulder Round and Swing
Thanks!
Angela
