The dance has been written to mark Ian B Robertson’s 50th birthday. Ian is well known for providing superb music for dancers with either his fiddle or accordion. However not many people are aware that Ian is also a proficient dancer although not always familiar with all the dances. This dance has been written so that the couples dance primarily with, or mirror, their partners and can be helped by the giving of hands.
