[Callers] Fw: Favorite Dances

Mac: So why did you suggest Roll in the Hey, as opposed to some other?   What others by Roger or Gene would you consider equal or better candidates? (Others are still encouraged to submit other authors' dances as suggestions for the best contra ever written.)

I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet. It almost always gets called at dance weekends with open calling--at least in the Midwest, where such weekends are popular Of course that could be because its author is from the Midwest. (hint! hint!) But other suggestions can still be offered. Also Donna Hunt wrote: "The Wizard's Walk tune is often played without the Wizard's Walk dance in dance halls these days.  So why aren't some of the Chestnut tunes played without the corresponding dance?" The answer lurks in these lyrics  from Fiddler on the Roof:   "Tradition, tradition! Tradition!"   Michael Fuerst      802 N Broadway      Urbana IL 61801       217-239-5844 ________________________________ From: Paul Wilde <zenyente(a)gmail.com> To: Caller's discussion list <callers(a)sharedweight.net> Sent: Saturday, December 1, 2012 3:36 PM Subject: [Callers] Favorite Dances Hey everyone, I'd like to return to Michael's original thread, before it is forgotten. The idea of posting our favorite 2 or 3 dances seems like a wonderful chance to share resources and enrich our dance communities.
