Music is an essential part of square dancing. In principle, all music with appropriate beat and tempo can be used for square dancing. However, in today's square dance, music especially produced for square dancing is used in most cases. I have the opportunity to produce high quality square dance singing calls on SNOW Records. Since September 2008 I'm a Staff Caller on SNOW Records.
