Gelosia

Verceppe

Notes: we'e starting the initial 11 saltarello at the end of the first tempo, with a movimento on the left foot and a saltarello right. The two introductory notes before the saltarello weave  allow the first and last man to do a mezavolta and salto one after the other, rather than simultaneously - looks quite spiffy.

Canaries

A complete dance, tonight, using our current two mutanze

• the first mutanza for a woman from Negri's canario
• another simple variation, cobbled from several sources 

As a simple dance:

• Riverenza and two continenze, with your partner - one strain
• four spezzati into the middle of the floor, four circling (holding right hands) - one strain
• four separating, then the man only does the turning passage - one strain
• man's first mutanza - two strains
• man does turning passage, then woman does it - one strain
• woman's first mutanza - two strains
• woman does turning passage, then man does it
• man's second mutanza 
• man does turning passage, then woman
• woman's second mutanza
• woman does turning passage and man does it at the same time; 4 spezzati meeting in the middle - one strain
• four spezzati changing ends, man does turning passage - one strain
• Then the man and the woman each do another two mutanze, separated by turning passages, as above; after the woman's final mutanza ...
• woman does turning passage and man does it at the same time; 4 spezzati meeting in the middle - one strain
• 8 spezzati circling in the middle, end side by side - one strain
• 2 continenze, riverenza - one last strain

Pinzochera

With only 7, just to keep the choreography fresh for us.

Amoroso

A warm-down instead of a warm-up this time. The three-person variant was fun.
