Sun Legend

Hungarian State Folk Dance Ensemble

It’s been a dream come true when the creators of the Hungarian State Folk Dance Ensemble came across the fresh-sounding, popular, dynamic music of Nikola Parov filled with ancient themes. For this ethno music composed uncommonly with saxophone, drums and brass the choreographers have created the most dynamic, most powerful movements of the Hungarian folk-dance, a real dance storm.

From their collaboration was given birth this 21st century, creative dance theatre vision. A vision based on the essence of the region’s music and dance traditions taking the cult of Sun as a basis in the creation.
