The notes say that this was devised "following a visit to the Andalusian town of Ronda in Southern Spain on 10th June 1986. Ronda is an ancient Moorish stronghold and is rich in mediaeval Arabic architecture, characterised by its regular geometric structUres. This dance, featuring several square and circular figures, is a representation of the Ronda buildings, and takes its name from the blue sky above the town on Ihat June morning."
