"six beats per measure rather than the standard eight" Not quite.. There are 9 beats per bar rather than 6 but there are still 8 bars per measure. It seem surprising that "The Battle of the Somme" (a WW1 march) is always used for such a feminine dance..
Beautiful dancing - thank you for posting
Glad you enjoyed it
Toll,einfach nur toll👍😘

I love Scotland and i live in Puerto Rico
Just fantastic, and you picked a dry day!
Thank you. Good fortune, overcast but dry and it rains a lot in the Highlands, or at least it feels like it!
@@BraemarMedia Tell me about it! Haha. At least it didn't put you off doing this, so thank you.
Absolutely wonderful.
wonderful.いいね！
very beautiful
"Pas de Basques, hop-knee-beat-beat, hop, hit, hit"... (As a child, I thought those were the words to "Battle of the Somme")
That high A was a bit screechy but blowing warm air on reed helps a lot.
Best off wi a synthetic reed.
very nice
Thanks

"There are 9 beats per bar" - nope, a 9/8 (such as The Battle of the Somme, which is played here) has 3 beats to the bar.
@@dcsprior Yes, that would be the dancer's way of looking at it. It's certainly not 6! They don't quite seem to know what a measure is either!
Dancing should be fun, not stiff competition.
It can be both.
Where are the swords?
It’s not a sword dance
