A Ring of Friendship

The idea behind this dance is the ring of dancers around the world who start to dance in a small group, then intermingle with the neighbouring groups, and giving hands across borders, continents and seas move on in a never-ending Ring of Friendship.

Best wishes,

Betty Grant

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (?). 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.
