Debka Eilon

2020-07-12T17:23:29Z

NC:

'''Ilan Swisa''' composed "'''Debka Eilon'''" (2013) to an Adyghi (Cherkess or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circassians Circassian], in their language) dance tune. It is Israeli due to the genre, the choreographer, the dedication to his son Eilon, and the fact that in Israel there's a Circassian community since the Russian-Turkish wars in 19th century, mainly in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kfar_Kama Kfar Kama].

The style of "Debka Eilon" draws on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lezginka '''Lezginka'''], a dance of nations of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasus_Mountains Caucasus mountains], among them Georgian, Azerbaijani, Lezgin, Dagestani, Chechen, and Adyghi people. The Adyghi version is called [https://youtu.be/AZ0iu1oUbDo "Leparise"] (Лъапэрисэ).

"Lezginka" is a dance of a warrior. In eagle-like movements, he exhibits his bravery by upright posture, sharp hand movements, and intricate toe-heel footwork (elements present in "Eilon"). Sometimes the dancer turns, lands on his knees and rises again. "Lezginka" is also danced by couples, with smooth swan-like movement by the lady, and the man courting her and exhibiting his vigor. Sometimes, men dance in turns, in a duel-like fashion. As a manly courting dance it is often performed at weddings by troops in traditional costumes, or by guests honoring the groom.

So, next time you dance "Debka Eilon", spread your wings, and dance it with gusto!
