Mavis, in Lynn's improper variation, where do you do the Carmen thing - A1 w/ Ns? or
both then and B1 w/ P?
Yes, I too thought it was by Lisa Greenleaf - but when I called it in San Francisco a
couple of weeks ago, a dancer came up after and told me he thought it was by Kathy
Anderson. Trying to discover the truth online, I then found the Paul Balliet reference
too... yikes. Carmen seems very popular amongst dance creators!
I'd love to see all of these Carmen dances to compare them. Anyone have them?

I
learned while dancing as "Carmen's
Scarf." I
want to ascribe it correctly. When I looked
online, I
found
references to (w/o the dance) for a Carmen's
Scarf
by
Paul Balliet and a Carmen's Hat by Kathy
Anderson.
Do
any of you know which one I've got here?
Thanks! -
