Dances from Southeast Europe at the turn of the year 2026

In south-eastern Europe, traditional dance is still alive today, and not just in rural areas. Selected dances from the various countries provide an insight into the diversity, liveliness and richness of this special cultural asset. Participants can expect lively to contemplative melodies, sometimes crooked and unusual rhythms as well as arm-swinging. Cultural-historical and regional background knowledge deepens the insights into folklore dance. A fixed dance partner is not required.
