I'm pretty sure that Claude Ginsberg's tune, Oddville Cupola, is AABBCC.
Erik Weberg wrote his dance, "Ad Vielle," specifically to go with that
tune, though the dance is written in the usual AABB format. Maybe not what
you're looking for. I can't pull the dance up on caller's box right now,
but here it is:
*Ad Vielle*
Erik Weberg
Duple improper, Becket
*(Begins in wavy lines across, Larks in the middle w/R hands joined)*
A1 Wave of 4 balance forward/back
Let go, walk to new waves
Waves balance F/B, Allemande L ~3/4
A2 Partner B&S
B1 Circle L 3/4, pass through
New neighbor swing
B2 Robins allemande R 1 1/2
Partner allemande L 1 1/4 to wave across

Hi there everyone, glad to join the list.
I’m curious about duple minor contra sequences that are written for 3-part
AABBCC tunes. Can anyone share or point me to any such dances?
My question is partly inspired by Gene Hubert’s *Fan In The Doorwa*y,
written for three part *slip* jigs. I’m pretty sure I’ve run across
sequences written for AABCC tunes (no repeat on the B). I might even have
spotted some 4–face-4’s written for full 3-part tunes on ibiblio (the
database seems to be down as I write this so I can’t confirm). But so far
I’m coming up empty for AABBCC duple minors.
If you’ve got anything I’d be much obliged.
