Red River valley (singing call)

In Swedish Masquerade we used to alternate the middle waltz section with 'Womble to your partner, womble to and fro, if you minuetta allagretto you will live to grow old.'

We used to do a Silly Threesome (a tunnel capture dance) and it went well to all manner of songs. My old man said follow the van, Mademoiselle from Armentiers, etc.

Circle Waltz always had a wide variety of songs, Rolling Hills of the Border, Bridges of Paris.

All a long time ago.
