Notes

Written by Terry Moylan from an 1823 Quadrille of the same name, with assistance from Ian Montague and Michael Tubridy. Published by the Brooks Academy in 2002. Interesting because the ladies often lead the individual parts (e.g. top lady and opposite man).

There are no CDs which feature this music.
