Written because I realized that Ode to Joy could be perfectly arranged as a contra tune. I wanted to write a dance that would go well with it, with the kind of flow that makes me feel joyful. (This dance is coincidentally very similar to Issac Banner's "Tom's Queue-less Carousel," which is itself a variation of "The Carousel" by Tom Hinds.)
