The Flowing Tide by Pat Murphy
This work provides a selection of set dances, including some danced in the US and Canada, to complement the previous volume "Toss the Feathers." It includes dances that have been revived since the publication of this previous volume, among them old traditional sets and some more associated with competition set dancing, such as the "Ballyroan Half Set," the "Drumgarriff Half Set" and the "Kildownet Half Set." There are also two waltz sets and two sets from Canada, one from Cape Breton and the other from Prince Edward Island. The sets are laid out in conventional set terminology and can be easily followed by teachers, pupils and anyone who has an acquaintance with the art of set dancing.
