It's important to let people experience our dance history. In fact, many of the chestnuts were originally done as triple minors; I occasionally call a triple minor (almost never Sackett's Harbor, more typically Beaux of Albany) just to go even further back into that history. By the way, Rory O'More has no twirl written into it. It's a recent addition, as is the "Petronella clap".
