I have read a number of comments on various meeage boards that suggest these dances are quite easy. I have found that each of the three dances presents its own difficulties.

This first dance is polytonal (key signature = Cmaj rh, and Dflat in the left. This does not present problems as both fit nicely under the hands. The main problem is the rhythm. I think that I have come fairly close here, but not quite got it.  It sounds too much like triplets insted of 6/8.

Piano = Boston grand (6ft 4ins).
Mics = AKG C1000
Recorded to tape.

The recording is about 18months old and I am thinking of reworking it sometime in the future.
