Spaghetti Rag as example of comparison of the same routine learned as a

"sequence" dance instead of a "round" dance.

Spaghetti Rag SEQUENCE DANCE

Here, Jane & Jim have memorized an entire, complicated dance.

Spaghetti Rag  as ROUND DANCE

Here, Rey is calling out the cues to dancers who have not memorized anything except for 

the names of the steps.  They can dance almost any dance within their Phase level immediately.  

Sometimes there may be a mistake, but they have not had to spend weeks of practice only to 

learn a few dances a year.  They can do a thousand different dances without learning or 

practicing the specific dance.
