Aray is a Filipinized version of the famous Spanish Aragonese dance Jota. The name of the dance was derived from a final exclamation on the song that accompanies this dance. The lyrics of this song is in Chabacano ErmiteƱo, a variant of Spanish that was spoken only in the Ermita district of Manila in the nineteenth century and is now extinct.
Taught by Don Verde
Inspired by the Bayanihan Philippine Dance Company
