Sestorka   (No, it's not the music we are used to, but it's the same dance.)
Sestorka   (This is just for the visual effect.  It's poorly filmed at a wedding or party, so hard to watch but: separate lines of men and women - back basket hold for women, shoulder hold for mn  - women in heels or barefoot!)
Vidinsko Horo
Shkarim
Nabrala
Cimpoi   (A solo performance, but behind the dancer so it's easy to follow if you need to. Some of you know this man, Steve Turner, from Stockton Folk Dance Camp)
Sedi Donka

Of course our ending dance, Kvar Acharey Hatsof    Music only     Lyrics
