FOLK DANCER/ONLINE INDEX Vol. 1 No.1 (Summer 1969) to Vol FOLK DANCER/ONLINE INDEX Vol. 1 No.1 (Summer 1969) to Vol. 47 No. 5 (December 2016), inclusive Created by Karen Bennett. Not indexed: most editorials and like content written by editors while they hold that position, most letters, ads, most recipes prior to June 15/95, cartoons, coming events, photographs, and social announcements (made in a column whose title varied a lot, including “Hiers Ek Wiers,” “Tidbits,” “From the Grapevine” and “The Back Page”). Prior to the 1990s, articles weren’t usually indexed under author as well as subject, so this combination index/bibliography will not include under a person’s name everything they wrote. (A future iteration of this index will include more bibliographic info. that dates pre-1990.) Abbreviations: ''AGM'' stands for Annual General Meeting, "bio" for biography, “fd” for folk dance, "J/J/A" for June/July/August, and "OFDC" for Ontario Folk Dance Camp. The newsletter title has been variously OFDA, OFDA Newsletter, Ontario Folk Dance Association Newsletter, Ontario Folk Dance Association Magazine, Ontario Folkdancer, Ontario FolkDancer, Folk Dancer: The Magazine of World Dance and Culture, and Folk Dancer Online: The Magazine of World Dance and Culture.

  • A 'Balkan Folk Dance'
    DANS ÇALIŞMALARI ÖZEL SAYI a ‘Balkan folk danCe’ Daniela Ivanova-Nyberg phenomenon ın The unıTed sTaTes: a feW analyTıCal oBseRvaTıons1 The purpose of this paper is to share some analytical observations on Balkan folk dance2 activities in the United States. It is to present, together with documentary data, data from my experience as a folk dance researcher and dance teacher. It raises questions about the situation today in terms of participants, dance instructors and repertoire in comparison to the peak of Balkan folk dancing in the 1960s and ‘70s. It argues that the American Balkan folk dance phenomenon—a complex American cultural phenomenon—relates to factors like fashion. The repertoire today is also influenced by recent immigrants from the Balkans, among whom there are many professional musicians and choreographers, introducing sometimes neo-folk music and newly created choreographies. Background of This Paper It took several years and thousands of miles of travel before reaching the point when I could draw conclusions with self-confidence. Besides observations, notes, audio and video documents and active participation in a variety of music and dance events since 2003, I was asking people— folk dance lovers who were my hosts, drivers, food-providers, supporters (many of them, I am happy to say, became my friends later)—a variety of questions related to the American Balkan phenomenon. In parallel to informal conversations and formal interviews, in the period 2004- 2008 I collected data through a ‘Balkan Dance Questionnaire’. In the

Ethnomusicology Archive Los Angeles, California 90095-1490 Abstract: Dick Crum (1928-2005) was a teacher, dancer, and choreographer of European folk music and dance, but his expertise was in Balkan folk culture. Over the course of his lifetime, Crum amassed thousands of European folk music records. The UCLA Ethnomusicology Archive received part of Dick Crum's personal phonograph collection in 2007. This collection consists of more than 1,300 commercially-produced phonograph recordings (LPs, 78s, 45s) primarily from Eastern Europe. Many of these albums are no longer in print, or, are difficult to purchase. More information on Dick Crum can be found in the Winter 2007 edition of the EAR (Ethnomusicology Archive Report), found here: http://www.ethnomusic.ucla.edu/archive/EARvol7no2.html#deposit.

    Virtual Dance Room Cue Cards Session #4 – April 17, 2020 Thanks for Joining Us! Ethnic Dance Chicago (www.ethnicdance.net) Door County Folk Festival (www.dcff.net) Opsa Serbian/Turbofolk Open Circle 2/4 meter Translation: A spontaneous exclamation often used while dancing – no exact translation, but something like “whee!”, “yippee!”, or “ee-haw!” Opsa is in the genre of the Turbofolk form of music popular in parts of former Yugoslavia. Per Dick Crum circa 1993: Opsa is currently one of the most popular dances at Croatian & Serbian dance events in the major cities of the Upper Midwest & the Pennsylvania/Ohio area. Its melody is relatively recent, having been composed & recorded in former Yugoslavia about a decade ago. The origins of the dance per se are obscure. It seems to have arisen here in the U.S., possibly around Pittsburgh. On the other hand, its structure has the same 5-measure pattern as Vranjanka (Belo Lence, I Banu Ide, etc.). I first saw & learned it at the Tamburitza Extravaganza weekend in Los Angeles, 1993, where tamburitza players & fans of tamburitza music from all over the U.S. had gathered, and Opsa was played & danced dozens of times. Devetorka a.k.a. Biala Rosa, Tri Godini Macedonian/Bulgarian/Serbian Open Circle 9/8 meter (QQQS) Translation: The nine This dance is commonly found throughout Macedonia, Bulgaria and Serbia. It is structurally identical to a basic village Gankino/Kopanica, but is in 9/8 rather than 11/8. In areas where it is done, the dance is often called by the name of the song.
