  • Shifting Orientations in Dance Revivals: from "National" to "Spectacular" in Ukrainian Canadian Dance
    Nar. umjet. 43/1, 2006, pp. 161-178, A. Nahachewsky, Shifting Orientations in Dance… Original scientific paper Received: 3rd April 2006 Accepted: 26th April 2006 UDK 394.3:323.113(=862)(71) ANDRIY NAHACHEWSKY University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada SHIFTING ORIENTATIONS IN DANCE REVIVALS: FROM "NATIONAL" TO "SPECTACULAR" IN UKRAINIAN CANADIAN DANCE Folk and ethnic dance revival movements can be defined as "any dance tradition in which the participants are actively conscious of a connection with past performances". Dance revival movements can be subdivided into "national", "recreational", "spectacular", "spiritual", and other orientations, depending on the motivations of the participants. The Ukrainian dance movement in Canada had a national orientation from 1925 to about 1960, and has shifted to a more spectacular orientation since that time. The orientation of the revival movement has important ramifications for the values and priorities of the community, the decisions they make, and the forms of the dances. Thinking about revival orientations may reveal interesting patterns cross-culturally. Keywords: dance, revival, folk, ethnic, national dance, spectacular dance, comparative, Ukrainian, Canadian I grew up in the Ukrainian community in western Canada in the 1960s and 1970s, where a staged dance tradition had become very popular as a vehicle for ethnic expression. From my insider perspective, it was important for us to perform Ukrainian dances as a means of expressing our Ukrainian identity, because the dances were beautiful, and because we had fun. I was a third generation Canadian, and neither my parents nor I had ever been in a village in Ukraine. Still, thousands of us had no doubt that our dances were true, authentic, valuable and natural.

A kobzar was an itinerant Ukrainian bard who sang to his own accompaniment played on a multi-stringedI bandura or kobza. Kobzar is also the name of Shevchenko’s famous book of poems, often referred to as his ‘literary monument to freedom.’ Its first editions – published in 1840 - were censored by the czar, but prevailed to play a key role in galvanizing the Ukrainian identity even to this day. Taras Shevchenko was an artist, a poet…a visionary. He was - and remains - the conscience and the voice of the Ukrainian people. In KOBZAR, Shumka wishes to honour the poet’s gift and to extend his voice through the movement, visuals and music of a dance theatre production. The vast legacy of Shevchenko’s work – specifically, the universal relevance of his words – inspired Shumka to probe not only the power of his voice in his own time, but to explore its relevance in the world today.
