I'm reaching out with a question both wearing my contra musician and my contra caller hat. 

As a musician, I've played with many different ways of describing my various bands' sets. As a caller, I've tried various descriptors. 

I've tried to capture these in a google document.  The * items are the descriptors I'm likely to rely on if I'm calling.   You can see I often go for describing the movement that the tunes might invoke and sometimes go to the feelings too.

I'd love to get your input!

You could fill out your own column or two in the table or write back here. 

Any and all thoughts welcome.

I'd love to hear your favourite descriptors.

Thanks :)
