Tanec Bulgarian Dance Group at Sidmouth Part 1

Led by Martin Spasov and featuring Boyko Andonov, the London based Bulgarian dance group Tanec amaze the crowds at the Sidmouth Folk Week Festival 2009 in the UK.

The first piece is based on the Kukeri folklore of Bulgaria followed by a men's dance to the famous tune Pusta Mladost. The third piece is a lively dance to the distinctive sound of the Zurna (Turkish oboe) followed by a Varnensko Horo from the North East region of Bulgaria featuring handheld wooden spoons as percussion.

Tanec is an ancient word for dance and the dance group was established in 2004 by their talented choreographer Martin Spasov with the kind support of the Bulgarian Embassy in London. The group has performed successfully at many festivals and dance events in London and around the UK and perform a variety of Bulgarian dances from different regions of the country.
