“Vysi Muni gosti Beja, who ammunition in ustoba!” - that year began to “take a dance!” - the semi-final of the dance competition of children and young people of the youth folklore of North Latgale. The purpose of the competition is the acquisition of traditional dance footsteps and the development of dancing skills, the acquisition of toys, pairs of dances, fraudulent dances, the updating of competition dances, the promotion of noisy dances. The northern Latgale province competition also took place on 2 March in Rezekne's municipality in Sprudzeau, where approximately 85 dancers were gathered with their teachers and parents.
On the day of the event, the cultural house was churning and encouraging, as everyone was preparing for tenders, even though several dancers were not in the event because they had become sick. To get better! This year i had planned for the acquisition and repetition of the songs of North Latgale, in order to be more pronounced in the big event that will take place in the Nurse of Ludza. “Vysi Muni gosti Beja, which ammunition in ustom!”, “Moza, Moza te manizens”, and the toy “tak, tak (i) upeite” were wonderful at the beginning of the competition. A jury was announced, consisting of Ernest Spitch, Aija Dundure and Ilmārs Dreļs. The contests could begin! The girls' dance “Sorconais i duobulen” and “towels dance” were slightly frightened, but the honour was executed by girls from the Rēzekne Municipal Agency RKTC folklore set “willows” (manager Leila Rasima). Let's get them in the final of the dancing competition!
The highest activity was in the competition - the North Latgale toddling and pair dance competition, where the pair were assessed separately. There were children from the age of 2 to the great young people. The first grade and the title “greatest dancers” was obtained by Igors Ratnik and Angelina Vvivska, Nick Sevchik and Daniela Jessica Drunka from the Rēzna elementary school folklore “Uobuļishi” (manager Inga Katkovska); Nauris Birze and Samantha's root, Raivo Svilāns and Alice Jared from THE 19TP9T primary school folklore set “Purineņš” (manager Rasma Igaune). The second grade and the title “big dancers” received Gaigalavas “Purinea” dancers David Elder and Evita Macāne, as well AS Nautrēnu high school folklore “Rogovka” (leader Anna Garanča) young Raivis Elksnis and Alice Sjakste, Aldis hawk and Nathalie Gailume, John Edgars Reinholds and Samantha Ozolina, while the third grade was awarded to Raitim Gutan and Gunta Mazurei, Aldis Bogdanam and Victoria Adelaide, Aigar Breaver and Agnes Ludborgai from Nautrēnu “Rogovka”. They all promised to continue dancing, improving and driving again next year.
Together, the singing continued as “Vysi Muni gosti Beja”, “as nabey smoke” and “Oi, siles” were again heard. The dancing competitions continued with the toddess “tak, tak (i) upeite.” It was now the turn of the 3 rd level 4 dance where the collective was evaluated. It was successfully completed BY the young people of THE 1 TP22T high school folklore group “Rasnaviņa” (manager Sandra Vazins), the “Siveun” (manager Aija Vaičule) and the Rēzekne folklore group “wilters” (manager Leila Rasima). All Grade 1 diplomas and titles “the greatest dancers” because the jury liked it. And for us, the spectators!
After a small pause in which Nikolai Zaharov was playing a wonderful play from Riga, a diploma was issued, while the competitions continued. There was a scale of scales and belts! This year the boys and girls of class 3, the 4 th grade girls and the 6 th class girl and boys from the Androupenes “Saiveņi”, Gaigalavas “Purinea” and L. Rananes McKashan in the upper secondary school folklore “Cooper” (manager Maria Andina). The scales and the belts of belts, who came and spoke in the dance of the dance, were both vigorously and at once serious. The first grade and the title of “greatest belt dancing” were received by Rebekah Scabarde, Lorette Lucjanova, Evelina Spin, Samantha root from Gaigalavas “Purinea” and from McKashan “Cookleites” - Gunita Boiko, Poļina Ostafija, Ilyja Razvodin (“the greatest scale dance dancer”). Good results are also for other dancers. The musicians played hard, the spectators blindly slapping their hands as the next race took place. This year was a resilience, and the most active dancer's title “great/ais” — between girls won Poļina Ostafija (kl. 4) and boys competition had to be determined by the jury where the best was Dairis Birze (box 6).
The by-laws of the competition says “to promote the folklore of the People's traditional dance, to cultivate dance paces, to identify their nuanced diversity and to improve dancing skills, to promote the absorption and further development of traditional dances, to promote live chapel musical traditions in the traditional dance guide”. The chapel was really big enough for us: Malachi Rezekne's “men” musicians and the teachers of the North Latgale municipality – Maria, Rasma, Inga, Layla, Sandra!
The competition “cadriils” – the pleasure was to observe the joy and the azar in the eyes of young people! Both members of the Rēzekne KTC “wilters” and THE young people of THE Kaunatas secondary school “Raznaviņa” who received first degree diplomas will be shown in Riga final. And another, “Paulk contest”, was a vigorous and big return to the two couples from the Rēzekne KTC folklore set, Dāvis Let and Catherine Griett, Jumis Ushmis, and Catherine's pundure.
It was a beautiful conclusion of contests and a first-degree acquisition for the greatest dancers! Hei, Hei, Hei - “thank you very much” Ernest Spīch for surprises – a nice new dancing and a scalping competition! All ended up happy! Great thanks to the folklore leaders and their dancers! The musician, Nicholas, helped to maintain a nice mood for a while. Thanks to the staff of the Sprudzean cultural house and the Rēzekne municipality's educational administration! On April 22, 2017, on April 22, 2017, and a good dance step!
Please also refer to the jury:
Aija Dundure, head of the ethnographic ensemble “Rikava”: “All the participants of the competition deserve great praise.” Those who have a more competitive experience with each year improve their performance. It was particularly delighted by the Rēzen's primary school dancers who had only recently joined the folklore dancers. They were particularly proud of their story and their attitudes to what they were doing. Here's something to learn from one of the big dancers! This year's innovation - the precision and resilience of belts and scales - showed what azarta and responsibility children were preparing for. These races, like Paul's competition, should be a tradition. Excellent performance of musicians - thanks to teachers and Whethers' chapel! We are convinced that a number of pleasant surprises will be expected in the future. '
Ilmārs Dreļs, horeograph, head of songs and dance festivals, head of the Rēzekne dance county: “With pricked dancers who dance with the prize!” “Shoows!”
Ernest Spīch, National Dance Expert, scientific institution business competency centre researcher: "As usual, both children and adults show their dance skills when winter goes away. While the big mask festivals, in the meantime, the small - dancing races“ take a dancing ”.
At first, the most difficult task of dance was for girls – “Sorcono duobular” is a toy, which may not be going to go in early morning. So the girls started slowly and calmly. The guys, supporters and valuers could watch the voices wake up, their bodies waking, their faces waking. Then Rasma Igaune said encouragement. Rasma is a long-standing and untiring leader of the North Latgale, so she can tell the children the right words so that the joy will wake up in souls.
There is a lot of dance in the dance race that year so that everyone can find the best. If someone prefers to dance, it finds the other one and can compete in a pair of dance races. Girls have an advantage this year – they can compete with a second girl when they dancing a “towel dance.” The dance is not hard, and maybe that's why it looked slightly overwhelming this year. It might have been more for the hardest dances – the pole racing was a sort of culmination. The dancing took quite a long time, not only sweat drops, but even a hat. The dancing skills were very similar and the Commission hesitated with the final decision. He had to change his pairs and hats. Then he could n't find the best … what would you do? There were two pairs of winners. At the time of the incident, the dancers were amazed – with the village, Nikolai Zaharov had arrived.
Many dances are well suited to young people and young people. This time it was good FOR Rikavas frame. There was no accent, no performance, no Straujuma. That is the peculiarity of a number of dances that you need to show your skill, changing the character in each part, and doing everything enough to dance.
For smaller dancers, the cheeks were pink. This year it had a well-thought-out order. At first, the dancers showed their mess only by dancing a pre-prepared leap pattern. Then the racing was followed, so long as he felt the scalp. At first they were all honored, but then, due to speed and excitement, they began to make a mistake and that meant that they had to go. There was a winner in a few minutes. Just a scale racing with it did not end. A special prize was waiting for anyone who danced the jury. Quite a lot of wizards came up. Who won? Of_course, the best scale Duncower!
Thank all teachers, parents and supporters who contribute to the love of children's dance! The People's dance is an important part of our latency/latgality. Like the language and the Song of the People, dance with his rhythm excites us, warms souls and performs his hearts with pleasure. Good luck to “take the dancing” in Riga on 22 April! ”
