Unfortunately, I didn't think to count it out. My best estimate is that
it will be 6-8 beats long depending on how quickly they move through the
allemande and gypsy. I toyed with the idea of having the ladies
allemande (right) and the gents cross the set, but it would take 2 beats
(at least) longer.
