Devised by Rod Downey on 4 March 2020 as a relatively simple fugal dance with the movement of Ladies of Dunse as a basis.

On 15 June, the first Monday of dancing after the lockdown, Johnsonville Club danced the world premiere of Pieces of Eight. As a special treat, Aileen Logie had brought her accordion along to club and played Pieces of Eight – the jig version of Peter Elmes’ 1984 hornpipe tune
