World Dance: A Cultural Collaboration
|
|
|
When: Nov. 29 at 7:30 p.m.
Where:
Albig Studio Theatre, Peters Hall B112
Free admission.
Radford University Department of Dance is presenting “World Dance: A Cultural Collaboration,” an infusion of culturally intriguing folk dances Nov. 29, 2016, in Albig Studio Theatre, B112, Peters Hall on the Radford University campus. The show will begin at 7:30 p.m. and is free to the general public. The cultural dances that are being performed are from the Dominican Republic, Germany, the Pacific Islands, China and Ireland.
The dance from the Dominican Republic is the traditional dance of “La Mangulina,” a prominent style of Dominican Folklorico in the southern section of the country. The music used sets a high spirited and colorful fiesta environment, which includes a huge assortment of instruments. One of the most important instruments used is the tambora, which is an African drum that guides the beat of the other instruments. “La Mangulina” features dancers wearing beautifully long, colorful skirts that are manipulated while dancing throughout the whole piece. This Dominican Folklorico involves quick waltz-like spins, along with a variety of quick and sassy forward and back stepping motions. The German folk dance highlights community, positivity and family.
