Cork Traditional Sets
Really interesting. With the exception of Garden of Daisies, which is similar to the version I know but performed differently, not many of these set dances are anything like the ones I know. I've seen many different variations over the years but I've never seen some of these. St Patrick's Day in particular. I genuinely didn't even know there was more than one version of the 'Lion's Claw' step.
Performed by dancers from the McTeggart school after a workshop with Maureen McTeggart-Hall, ADCRG.
