Description
One of Armenia's great cultural treasures, Armenian dance has a rich history: the beloved circle-dance rooted in ancient Zoroastrian ritual, line-dances steeped in mountain battles and lore, gestures and jumps traceable to medieval mysteries and 19th-century feasts and fairs. Here the renowned Shoghaken Ensemble from Armenia performs traditional dances in all their rhythmic and melodic variety, ranging from the primitive wail of the zurna and driving beat of the large drum (dhol) performed at village weddings to virtuosic turns on the duduk, kamancha, kanon and shvi only possible in the hands of Armenia's master instrumentalists.
