Badju Mandadu speaks about the contradance as a choreography. I mention several dance steps: “…Chenenglese, sacaceplace, balance, tranvance, chocecatre turdimen, reste.” The lyrics describe an English dance where people gather socially and have fun together. My intention was to create a lively song suitable for a traditional dance hall. I added contrasting drum patterns to create different dynamics throughout the song but maintained a steady pace for dancers. The piano improvisation section is particularly intense and colourful, and it becomes more active and energetic as the song progresses towards its end, drawing from a Jazz/Blues inspiration.

Lyrics
Bem no junta                     (let's come together)
Ness dança Inglesa            (In this English dance)
Bem no baila                     (let’s dance)
Ba bsca bo par                   (go and get your pair)
Bem balance                     (Come and Balance)
Chocecatre Turdimen 
Sacaceplace
Arrie, Passe
Nos guenti faze attention   (Pay attention, everyone)
Par Avanti a frenti 
Num brinca yo yo 
Nos Guenti faze attention   (Pay attention, everyone)
Ta ruma tud mundu
Brinca yo yo

Faite attention, camare      (Pay attention, everyone…)
Faite attention, Balance     (Pay attention, everyone…)
Faite attention, Tranvance (Pay attention, everyone…)
Sacaceplace, reste 

Faite attention, pass pa frenti (Pay attention, everyone…)
Faite attention, bolta um bez (Pay attention, everyone, turn)
Sacaceplace, classe, reste
