Living Dance Archive - Viharsarok - Hungarian National Dance Ensemble

The next stop of our Live Dance Archive series, marked by the name of Zoltán Zsuráfszky, will be presented under the title Viharsarok, this time directed by Gergő Sánta, dance leader of the Hungarian National Dance Ensemble.

Current events



The dance culture of nationalities in the southern Tisza Region, the outstanding dancers of the Hungarian-Romanian-Gypsy villages of Viharsarok and the special world of the local original dance material will be brought to life in the next show of our Living Dance Archive. In addition to the authentic presentation of the diverse cultural traditions of the region, the audience can also enjoy never-before-seen authentic dances and a rarely heard music selection on stage.

The sound of “restlessness” of the Békés region, the Roma instinct and the fire of the Romanians are all local treasures, which we hope will be given a worthy place in the Living Dance Archive series.

This is what writer Géza Féja said about the region of Viharsarok and its inhabitants:

“Regions also have their own destiny... Everything becomes especially beautiful under the huge and open lowland sky and in the infinity of the plain... Land and people have an abundant life, just like the blessed fruit tree, no matter how narrow its fate may be. The southern Tisza region, the famous historical Viharsarok, also gave birth to infinite gentleness... These are Eastern faces, with hidden heats glowing behind the olive-brown, cold mask... they carry some healthy tribal wildness, a sophisticated aesthetic inclination, a zest for life and a mystical disposition that always tickles a smile from within.”
