Music: none as yet (interestingly enough, the
source music seems to have been for the 3-person version) |
|
|
| Starting
position: in a
line side by side, holding hands. The
instructions do not specify genders. |
|
Note: I'm arranging the sections according to the
pieces of the written music, rather than by similar |
|
actions as I might have otherwise |
|
|
| Section 1: |
|
|
| 1-12 |
12 saltarelli, starting left; drop hands |
|
|
| Section 2: |
|
|
| 13&14 |
End 1 does 2 sempi, left and right, and a doppio, left,
away (instructions say "downgroup") |
| 15&16 |
Middle does 2 sempi, left and right, and a doppio, left,
to end up to the left of End 1 |
|
|
| Section 3: |
|
|
| 17&18 |
End 2 does 2 sempi, left and right, and a doppio, left, to
end up left of Middle |
|
-- alternately, the result of these actions could have the
three facing each other in a "circle" |
| 19&20 |
End 1 does a voltatonda (with a doppio) and a riverentia |
|
|
| Section 4: |
|
|
| 21&22 |
Middle does a voltatonda (with a doppio) and a riverentia |
| 24&25 |
End 3 does a voltatonda (with a doppio) and a riverentia |
| 26 |
End 1 does 1 continentia left, touching hands with the
person on the left |
| 27 |
Middle does 1 continentia left, touching hands with the
person on the left |
| 28 |
End 2 does 1 continential left, touching hands with the
person on the left (don't ask me how if they're in a line …) |
|
-- alternately, it might be nice, if they're in a circle, to
do 2 continentia and touch both people |
| 29&30 |
All join hands to do a voltatonda (all move in a circle
with two doppio, perhaps) |
|
|
|
Note: I think that this will work by playing each
of the sections (aside from the first) one time through. |
