Accidental variation on “Further and More”, by Lisa Greenleaf, choreographed into existence via the search by phrase tool in Caller’s Box.
I initially thought this dance was “Legends of the Hidden Temple”, by Dugan Murphy, having plugged in all of the figures save the actual Rory slides. As it turns out, it’s an otherwise exact match if you disregard the quintuple progression…of course, the figures aren’t published on Caller’s Box, so I told an entire hall of dancers in Portland, ME that this was actually Dugan’s dance (sorry Lisa!).
It’s also a fixed version of Destiny by Don Flaherty, so feel free to insert my usual noises about dance originality and novel choreography here: { . . . }
