Note from the deviser: ‘The Iris flower, in full bloom, reminds me of a hand and so I named this dance after the Iris, because of the continuous use of hands. The first 8 bars represent the lower petals, or “falls”, of the Iris.’

“Name” column: normal = designated recording, greyed-out = designated but not official lead tune, italic = possible match found in DB (watch number of repeats!)
