CSARDAS DANCE COMPANY TO PERFORM
IN LIGONIER, PENNSYLVANIA
Csárdás (chär-däsh) is rooted in the word Csárda, the Hungarian word for a village inn, pub or tavern—places where villagers often gathered to sing, dance and celebrate special occasions. The dances celebrated in the Csárda became known as Csárdás, or dances of the pub.
With infectious exuberance emotions and traditions are personified and shared through dance in Hungarian villages. It’s within this tradition that Richard Graber founded the Csardas Dance Company in Cleveland, Ohio as a vehicle to promote and support the art of Hungarian dance. The Csárdás reveal the richness of the Hungarian culture through a broad range of dance dialects and styles.
