Ron, what a great question. I think it's interesting that Ted
Sannella once said that a dance had to have 50% different
choreography in order to be a new dance. Although I never asked him
why, it occurred to me that there might be a historical reason for
his view.
Take Petronella, Hull's Victory and others. They have unigue A parts
but the same B: ones down the center, return, cast, rights and lefts....
Chorus Jig and Rory O'More fit the same pattern, different A but
share the same B.
Even squares can fit the same pattern. Look at how many squares have
as their B part, circle left half, swing corner, promenade.
