"It'a small world" part 3

The next was Üveges (bottle dance) Choreography: Christopher L. Smith, Richard Graber The bottle dance exemplifies the women's skill of balancing the bottle on their heads.  There is no trick involved - the women of the villages achieved this skill through much practice and often performed for others at festive affairs, such as weddings.

Another one was Bhangra, an Indian Dance by Ashlay Chawla and others. Bhangra is a lively form of folk music and dance that originates from Punjab. People traditionally performed Bhangra when celebrating the harvest. The specific moves of Bhangra reflect the manner in which villagers farmed their land. This hybrid dance became Bhangra. While Bhangra began as a part of harvest festival celebrations, it eventually became a part of such diverse occasions as weddings and New Year celebrations. The folk dance has been popularized in the Western world by Punjabi and is seen in the West as an expression of South Asian culture as a whole. 

The last one was Flamenco Dance by Ivonne Radinson, former B-W student. Any discussion of Spanish Gypsies would be remiss without a consideration of Flamenco, which lies at the very soul of these often misunderstood and misrepresented people. There are many types of flamenco dance but the one that will be presented for you tonight is a mixture of flamenco with tango, originated in Spain.

That's all I know on that day. It's was a great opportunity to look around the world though "it's just a small world".
