Dear dear I still can't watch this dance with a straight face. In terms of artistry, the two of them are like water. Fluid, graceful with enough intensity underneath it, sharp, and their movements are very in sync.
What's interesting is the highly suggestive sexual nature of this dance. Groping aside, there's some fairly explicit movements toward the end there, after the lifts. LOL can't believe they actually did this though.
At 2:32 - walking downstairs in a long dress and high heels, clapping my hands AND looking across at my partner - I'd have done six somersaults down the steps!
WOW.
And such beautiful beaded costumes. I can't even imagine the work that goes into all the stage productions. Thanks to everybody behind the scenes.
I've watched the couple of other versions of this dance I've been able to find on YouTube. Neither of them have impressed me at all. This, on the other hand, is magnificent: there's an incredible tension between Hana and Wao, and it's very desperate and passionate. Their dance is also perfectly synchronized. They're so graceful...
This dance seems more...Latin, than perhaps 18th Century European O.o But a good dance nonetheless...The red of their costumes is sort of blinding though XD Thanks for sharing!^^
It does have some truly bizarre moves... Is it just me or is the shameless groping of poor Ohana also included in the choreography not once, but twice??

It's a variation on "Bolero" by Ravel, I think.
