I'm a "cub caller" from Gainesville, FL, and seek the
choreography for
"Winter in Summerland"
by Jeff Spero and James Hutson. I'm aware of several online
videos of the dance, e.g,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlisHB8G8GQ
and can glean the steps from the video, but wonder if
someone could provide the official choreography?
================================================================
For my own reference, I assembled a few well-known dances
with steps and video-links of the dances. Another "cub
caller" told me the page was useful to her, so I've
put it online at
http://www.math.ufl.edu/~squash/contradance.dances-tunes.html
Errors in the dance-steps are mine, as I've re-written some
for my own edification.
I'm looking to add to this collection. If you know of an
online video of a good dance, please email me [eddress below].
Useful are videos where the caller can be clearly heard [a
plus if the teaching is included], and where the video
shows, uncut, at least one full cycle, together with the
transition to the next cycle.
Another plus: Videos that show the end-effect, for
complicated dances.
I currently only have one video of a 4-facing-4, and
would like especially to expand that section.
Sincerely, -Jonathan King

PPS: I thank "ccpage19143", Chris Page (whom I've not yet
met) for taking the time and having the expertise to label
/many/ YouTube contras with the title and author. My
"dance-tunes" page would be half its size without his
public-service work.
