I wrote this dance because I like playing with set and rotate for 3 couples and the snowball grand chain. When I wrote it I was watching a documentary on Gordon Lightfoot where he mentioned one of his favorite songs he wrote is *Song for a Winter’s Night*. Since we first danced this on a very cold winter night, I thought this title appropriate.
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).

Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
