Far Away

Far Away is an English Country Dance devised by Gary Roodman, and published in "A Finite Set of Calculated Figures" in 2003: https://calculatedfigures.com/. It is a proper duple minor longways dance. The tune, also called "Far Away", was composed by Peter Jung and performed by Gene Murrow, Jessica Murrow, Karen Axelrod and Peter Barnes on the album "Band of Friends". Used with permission of Gary Roodman. The animation plays at 115 counts per minute normally, but the first time through the set the dance is slowed down so people can learn the moves more readily. Men are drawn as rectangles, women as ellipses. Each couple is drawn in its own color, however the border of each dancer indicates what role they currently play so the border color may change each time through the minor set.
