Choreographers notes:
During wall 5 the music slows down – dance at normal tempo up to count 1, section 4.(Point right toe back)
Counts 1-8 at slow speed and then pick up the tempo on count 1, section 5 (Cross rock)
The music is based on a theme from Khachaturian's ballet – Spartacus, hence the name
It was used for the BBC’s TV series – “The Onedin Line”
