Ivy used to categorise dances by their title as 'male' or 'female' in order to remember who "went first". For example, "General Stuart's Reel" is 'male' and the man starts the dance. When discussing "The Wood of Fyvie", published by Jack McConachie, Ivy indicated it was a 'female' dance because "Fyvie includes Ivy." That comment is the inspiration for this dance. The women always dance in front of their partner and15t woman begins the sequence starting at bar 17.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
