A teacher’s reactions to the 2023 March 4th–5th Children’s and Youth Folk Dance Anthology: performances of the best children’s folk dance group choreographies of the past year. Almost 30 choreographies were presented during the two day event at the Eiffel Műhely Ház in Budapest’s 10th district. The author noted a general improvement in the level of works presented at the event – since folk dance has become part of the curriculum in cultural education programs in Hungary. Prominent amongst material presented were choreographies of dances and traditions of Transylvania, Moldavia, Bukovina, Romania and Hungarian communities in Slovakia. Most of the choreographies focused on folk dance in ‘classical presentation’. He makes special mention of the “Turka” game – a custom with a rich and complex message involving an animal figure. The event is organized by the Heritage Children’s and Youth Folk Arts Association. Report by Trencsényi László.
