CSáRDáS
(Redirected from Csardas)
'Csárdás' or 'czardas' (pronounced '''char'-dash'') (Hungarian ''csárdás'', from ''csárda'', a tavern or inn) is a traditional Hungarian folk dance. It originated in Hungary and was popularized by Roma music bands in Hungary and neighboring lands of Vojvodina, Slovakia, Slovenia , Croatia, Carpathian Ruthenia, Transylvania-(Hungarian Kingdom) and Moravia, as well as among the Banat Bulgarians, including those in Bulgaria.[1]
Its origins can be traced back to the 18th century Hungarian ''verbunkos'', used as a recruiting dance by the Hungarian army.
Csárdás is characterized by a variation in tempo: it starts out slowly (''lassú'') and ends in a very fast tempo (''friss'', literally "fresh"). There are other tempo variations, called ''ritka csárdás'', ''sűrű csárdás'' and ''szökős csárdás''. The music is in 2/4 or 4/4 time.
Probably the best known "Csardas" is by Vittorio Monti written for violin and piano. It has 5 variations in tempo, and is quite virtuosic.
The dancers are both male and female, with the women dressed in traditional wide skirts, usually colored red, which form a distinctive shape when they whirl.
Classical composers who have used csárdás themes in their work include Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms, Johann Strauss, Pablo de Sarasate, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and others.
