Macedonian Men's Dance - Kopačka

A group of old ethnic Macedonian men from the village of Dramche, near the town Delčevo, in the North of the Republic of Macedonia are dancing the
Macedonian men's dance "Kopačka". Beginning with a 10 measure dance called Cigančica, they dance into the dance "Dimna Juda" and then straight into Kopačka.

According to Atanas Kolarovski, when Kopacka was first introduced to Tanec by the village dancers, the original name was Sitnata (the litte one). Tanec changed the name to Kopacka and the dance subsequently became so famous that the villagers adopted this name of Kopacka for both the dance and the name of their group, to remind everyone from whence this dance originally came.
