Subject: Re: [Callers] Sung contras
I have a vague recollection of hearing about sung
contras one time, and was
wondering if indeed there are any, and any resources available for learning
them
(from here in Australia). Just hearing Ralph Sweet on the CDSS website doing
The
Auctioneer reminded me.
There's at least one. Check out the 2008 Ralph Page Dance Legacy Weekend
syllabus, online, page 47. Dave Colestock called the singing contra "The SGB
Contra" to the tune of Sweet Georgia Brown. Dave adapted the dance from one, on
record (vinyl), called "Sweet Georgia Brown Contra." More details in the
syllabus. I couldn't get the tune out of my head for weeks after dancing to it,
doggone it. Dave's on this list, so he may want to add more himself.
Jeremy
