Правда, которую НЕ ВСЕ готовы услышать: История армянского танца

Why do Armenians always dance in a circle? Why does moving to the right symbolize life, and kicking a connection to the land of our ancestors? We'll explore the semantics of great dances: from the warlike Yarkhushta to the legendary Kochari, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In this video, you'll learn: • Ancient rituals: how dance helped warriors go into battle and farmers reap the harvest. • The secrets of Kochari: why this dance imitates the movements of rams and what is encoded within it. • Connection to the cosmos: how hand movements reflect worship of the celestial bodies. • National identity: how dance helped preserve national unity in the most difficult times. Armenian culture is a treasure trove, and dance is its main key. Watch this video to the end to see the greatness of our spirit through the magic of movement to the sounds of the duduk, dhol, and zurna. #emilbonya
