Hi all, In a workshop yesterday, one of the participants asked about favorite 3-facing-3 dances. I have several (Walpole Condo, by Ric Goldman, and Rita Rescheduled, by Alan Davies, for example), but I said this is exactly the sort of question I find it productive to ask this list — so here I am, asking on the workshop’s behalf! And while we’re at it, a second question along these lines came up: great triplets that *don’t* have contra corners? That’s a long list, potentially, so I’ll nuance it by saying for myself I’m always particularly interested in accessible but unusual figures (The Pleasure-Vest, by Colin Wallace, has an utterly delightful figure that combines a chain, a star, and an orbit, for example). Please don’t only point us to lists of these formations; the workshop participants were specifically asking for individual recommendations of favorites. We can all Google, but there’s utility in knowing that real, living humans find a particular dance worth doing :) Louise Winchester, UK louisesiddons.com _______________________________________________ Contra Callers mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
