Adrian writes: The Heights of Rechberg (aka Hohenrechberg Castle) is a 4x32 R for 4 couples in a longwise set, danced to the music of The Corn Rigs. Dance intensity 100%. Standard - good intermediate, stamina also essential. Best treated as a romp, the odds are against most sets completing all four repeats without the dance falling apart. Dedicated to the memory of Hans and Karin Willberg.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). 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.
