Thanks, good point about the A part. It was pointed out to me that for the gents the allemande is not actually as far as 1+1/2 to get to the other side where their partner is, so call it once and a little more. (In Give and Take, Pedal Pushers has it written as 1+1/4.) Viewed another way, it's the A part of Pedal Pushers and the B part of Harmony Supper Line (by Jim Saxe) connected with a progression similar to Sweet Music. To give a nod where nods are due, I think that means I have to call it: Pedal Point improper A1. gents allemande left 1+1/4; P star promenade A2. ladies do si do; P swing B1. circle left 3/4; N swing B2. long lines; right hand star Yoyo Zhou
