Los Danzaq de Ayacucho, a folk ensemble of dancers and musicians from the Central-Southern Andes of Peru, present a breathtaking performance of scissor dancing, an ancient art form that bears a striking resemblance to break dancing. The Scissors Dance is a one-on-one competition between dancers that is a test of strength, agility, imagination, and artistry. This program features four of Peru's finest dancers and musicians in a demonstration and performance of the music, rhythms, and increasingly difficult acrobatic moves, all presented with traditional folk instruments and costumes (recorded in 2003 at C. D. Hylton High School in Woodbridge, VA).See Less
