thank you all for liking it - the truth is, it is a so-called "dance of the hookers" which was part of a play. music is medieval saltarello, but dance is quite modern and using medieval steps and ideas.

[dobrinluci]

And here you are , I jst supposed you must be the hero of the play...must say even if I seen a lot , the play you put up there was an incredible experience!Hope all of you guys to return to Sighisoara 2009 too..thank you for the great adventure that day was !Hope you all will have joyous holidays!

turkish dance!!!!!are you nuts!!!!!this is saltarello song...and definetly is not turkish.

[dobrinluci]

I called it "turkis dance " as the moment in the play was " a tempting dance into a turkis coffe shop" , but I do agree that this is definitely an saltarello!

Beautiful music.  Sultry, sexy, exotic, earthy.

[saraamara]

Segesvár ősidőktől fogva fontos, lakott hely, 1898-ban a Nagy-Küküllő jobb partja fölé emelkedő fennsíkon tárták fel a Wietenberg-kultúra leletekben gazdag telepét. A rómaiak ’’Stenarum’’ nevű katonai őrhelye állt itt, majd óbolgár nép lakott a környékén. 1141 és 1161 között II. Géza szászokat telepített ide. A szász szék központja lett, favárát 1191-ben kezdték el építeni.

Retour à l'école, roumain. La ville est située en Roumanie depuis 1920 (traité de Versailles), avant c'était la Hongrie pendant presqu'un millénaire: Un site pas du tout nationaliste en est la preuve (entre autre) - voire par exemple le Wikipedia.

La négation de la réalité historique ne peut pas changer les faits, les mensonges ne classent que le menteur.

@tengelice1 Le nom de cette ville est "Sighisoara". La ville est située en Roumanie pas en Hongrie. La ville a été établie par les alemands (le nom originale est Schäßburg). La ville n'a pas été établie par les hongrois.

S'il te plaît, pas de propagande hongroise! Vous, les hongrois, vous avez fabriqué l'histoire de l'Europe!!!

hahaha . . . the boy looks completely lost . . . hahaha

[megburn]

Did they actually dance like this?

[Tinuviel1234]

Whats the name of the music?

btw. Nice Dance :D

[capitandabarca]

nice coreography, but nothing to do with the original medieval dance......

Much turkish like. Original Saltarello is an italian dance and deeply different

[tengelice1]

Le nom de cette vill est SEGESVÁR - c'est une ville hongroise...

[ofcelticblood]

Saraamara is right it's a veriation of a saltarello.

Sort of like the meat loaf of music, each band has their own distint flavor of this. Was told from dobrinluci (where the video came from) it was just a band at the renaissance faire.

If you like this you might like Mince Pye's Saltarello. I also love Carlos Zumajo'sEl Encuentro Con Los Demonios Internos - Trotto/Saltarello version personally.
