Scottische is the name of the dance, not of the music. Their dancestyle is really traditional and choreographed. I like the modern folk version of this dance much more. The interaction between the two dancers is much more pronounced than in such a choreographed version.
@schaduwgestalte I agree that this dancestyle is very choreographed, but I don't think choreographed dance is traditional. The „modern“ folk not choreograped version is the most traditional in my opinion.
I think it's called a set dance. In a circle, a sequence of figures is done. The figures, and the order of their doing, has to be memorized.
Social dancing Schottische is lead-follow, and may be as varied as the lead has tricks he can lead and she can follow.

Choreographed? they look like they are struggling a little to stay choreographed.
