The Lady in Pink, five couple jig devised by Rod Downey
’The Lady in Pink’ was danced at the Johnsonville SCD Club’s September tartan night in 2016. The MC was club tutor Rod Downey, who devised this dance.
A tartan night is basically an ordinary club night but dancers from other clubs are invited and there is live music. We were lucky to have a five-piece band comprising Mary McDonald, Heather Elder, Lynne Scott, Sharlene Penman and Richard Hardie.
Here’s what Rod wrote about the dance:
“Devised late 2002. It is a teaching dance to introduce 5 couple dances. There are enough delays in the dance to enable the fourth couple to get used to being corners in two parts of the set, and enough partner contact that experienced dancers can guide less so through the dance.
Recommended music is “The Curlew“ by P/M Donald MacLeod, and a suitable recording is “Spin“ on the CD “Kardinia Capers“, by David South and his band.
This dance was written for our treasured treasurer Yu Hayakawa, who loves to wear pink.“
