'StateBlock' object has no attribute 'is_code_block'
This dance is 4 times 64 bars, but the repeats are not identical: for bars 9-16 and 41-48, each of the dancing couples has its own two formations.  

Specified: 4 very different Tunes.

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.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
