Israeli Dance Hora Medura

[rbsadler]

In almost every culture, there is a circle dance. It's a beautiful thing we all have in common.

[friedie1jeff]

Excellent!

[Romanel007]

All israelian's music is moldavian music.

[Hageulah]

@Romanel007 - what's that for a Nonsens? Israelis / Jews have their own Songs, music, Dances....but the jewish immigrants came from countries all over the world and braught their special traditions with them to Israel!

[Romanel007]

@Hageulah Israel it's country of immigrants : Polonia,Ukraine,Romania,Bessar­abia, but music of jews is for 70% moldavian music with few changes.

[NoMemory]

@Romanel007 You are right. Sounds deeply Romanian to me. But you cannot deny the jewish influence.

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@Hageulah these are eastern europeen khazar dance

[AynurBazayev]

@isra2eelsharrmoutlak Khazars aren't Eastern European you idiot. Khazars are Central Asian Turks like myself

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev I never sais Khazar are eastern Europeen, but that most europeen jews came from there. you idiot turks always insult, you are animals, not people !

[AynurBazayev]

@isra2eelsharrmoutlak Bullshit those Jews look nothing like us to be Khazars you stupid piece of shit. I'm a true Muslim so I don't insult people from the same religion on me, may Allah judge ignorant animals like you. Pezevenk.

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev shut you piece of shit what you is hypocrite and pathetic because you say you you dont insult but you do. goyedamet koskesh you have no link with what im talking about. stop saying bullshit. lot of the jews came from khazar and that was from centuries, im not talking about now. and lot of them do look like you

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev you started to insult me you stupide may Allah forgive you

[AynurBazayev]

@isra2eelsharrmoutlak No stupid, you insulted ME and the WHOLE Turkic nations by saying those Jews are related to us. They are related to you, not us. Allah forgive you.

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev there were a people converted to judaism in Khazaria, lot of russians today are jews because of them, and today we find a lot in Ocuped-Palestine. I am not saying some turks have been converted to judaism...Allah forgive you too. I never insulted Turkic people. if you dont like that people insult your people then dont insult you too

[AynurBazayev]

@isra2eelsharrmoutlak Are you normal? Do you even know what a Khazar is? Russians are SLAVIC. Khazars are NOT Russian nor are they Jews. Khazars are Turks from Kazakhstan I'm a Khazar, I'm Muslim. Read the whole history of Khazaria, the Khazars who became Jewish and Christian were later converted to Islam in 11 CE by Arabs. That is why most Khazars, Kipchak and Uyghur Turk are Muslim. When you compare Jews to us it is insulting.

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev Thank you for your information and sorry for insulting.

[AynurBazayev]

@isra2eelsharrmoutlak No problem brother. Assalamu Aleikum.

[isra2eelsharrmoutlak]

@AynurBazayev wa 3aleykom salamon minallah brother

[ale9z]

@Romanel007

no more lodavian than romanian or greek. It's the same if you would say that all moldavian music is turkish music or USA music is irish or african music.

[Mayim1982]

I just found that you have HOra Medura which is sung. Where did you get it? I have just Hora medura music...

[Hageulah]

yes, it's a rare music piece "Hora Medura" as an Hebrew Song. We love it very much, because it's much more beautiful than the instrumental one.

Sent me an Email and I'll sent it to you as an mp3.file. Mirjam

[red1dev]

It's sung by an Israeli folk group called Karmon Israeli

[agrifate]

[StefanGSE]

[Hageulah]

Shalom,

please come to my Dance Sessions and I will teach you the Israeli Horas and let's have fun together !

Mirjam

[Scizophrenia88]

lol we have dance sessions too... and yeah... im 15 and i can dance better than that. the dance looks like you just learned it 15 minutes ago!

[Hageulah]

this comment seems to me like an arrogant bigmouth ! You're 15 - o.k. now I understand !

You have to learn, that dancing is for connecting people, not for trewing out bad statements ! Mirjam

[Rhynome]

It's not a choreographed dance routine; it's a mode of dancing, a certain type of Hora. Hora is for connecting - as Mirjam said - not for showing off.

[giubica1]

Regarding the origins, hora, danced in a circle, comes from Romania. Check jewish ro hora.

[Hageulah]

This is an originally Jewish Israeli Hora. The Jews all over in the world dance the Hora too, not only the Romans, also the people in many other countries around the world dance the Hora, which means circle dancing with easy steps to popular folklore music. Mirjam

[giubica1]

Hora, plural Hore (same reading as greek Horae), is the name of an ancient circular dance, which survived up to now days in Romania. In the ancient times, naked women danced it. In Romania there were found three clay depictions of this dance, two of them having five dancers and one with six dancers. The last one, which is the most famous, was found at Bodesti-Frumusica, in Moldavia. All of them are dating from 4000 - 3000 BC.

[giubica1]

Although many people think of "the Hora" when they think of "Jewish dancing," the Hora comes from Romania. Aaron Alpert, 2007

see ifdecal berkeley edu history

[giubica1]

The fact that the Jews and other people around the world dance the Hora, does not change the fact that Hora originated in Romania.

[nano4288]

You are my hero.

[ahmedalian]

I love jews!

[avass89]

Baruch Hashem, may the jews keep living in freedom!

[psymouss]

Woow :) Really nice video of a great event! Thanx for sharing, kol hakavod ;)

[Cuccussette]

Thank you for sharing !

I'm found on folk dances and I learn most of them from videos and shows.

Sometimes people think that internet shows only ugly things, bully, violence,, bad pranks to weak people.

It isn't true.

Internet may show beautiful thinghs like this hora.

thank you for filling the web with interesting videos.

Is the music performed by Kzelmetics folk brass band?

[Hageulah]

I am glad, that you enjoy our Israeli-Dance-Videos. This Song and Dance was created in the very early 60th. Lyrics by Natan Alterman, Music by Yoel Valbe, Dance by Yoav Ashriel. I am sorry, but I don't know which Group here is singing the "Campfire-Hora"

(Hora Medura).

Mirjam Hageulah

[Hageulah]

On this Video you can see Dancers while dancing the old Pioneer-Dance "Hora Medura" at Yom Haatzmaut 2005 in Berlin. The Dancers are Germans, Christians within a few Jews. They dance all together the beautiful and merry Israeli Dances and have fun ! We are glad, that now in Germany Christians and Jews are connected by dancing the Israeli Dances and have a good Relationship ! Mirjam
