"Double" dances
This is HoraWiki, a treasury of Israeli folkdance information that anyone can edit! To get started, visit the Home Page. |
"Double" dances are those where two (or, rarely, more) choreographies exist to the same or to very similar music.
(Discussion needed about how double dances arise, why they're a problem, attempts at solution, how opinions differ among markidim and choreographers and dancers.)
