'StateBlock' object has no attribute 'is_code_block'
The dance notes say this was devised "following a visit to Kinderdijk, near Rotterdam, HolIand. This locality is unique for its rows of windmills, nineteen in total, dating from the eighteenth century, all of whIch are still functional. All the left and right hands across figures in this dance represent the sails of the mills turning in the wind.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). 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.
