They cutting down the forest road...
folk dance performance
In 2018 was the centenary of the end of the First World War, the last historical event that inspired the traditional communities to create. The experience of war exceedingly enriched the traditional folk dance and music. The folk songs related to the soldiery life, to the events like conscription or being on the razzle in the army, songs about the joy of the homecoming soldier, the weeper of the wife who had lost her husband, of the mother who’s son didn’t come home any more – a large number of folk songs and melodies were created in these years.
The folk dance performance of the Háromszék Dance Ensemble is a bitter-sweet remembrance, a traditional folkloric adventure exploring hungarian, romanian and gypsy folk dance and music of different regions in Transylvania (Gyergyó, Küküllő-mente, Sajó-mente, Észak-Mezőség).
