Dancing 2
May 15
In the open air by the drum beat heard all
over Bumburet valley. All kinds of Kalasha dances: the
d'hushak, fast semi-circular dance of
women held by shoulders; the c'a, two
semi-circles facing each other; the tren,
two long semi-circles one inside the other with the
inner circle squeezing the drummers, and the
drazhahilak, a long line slow dance of women
humming slow Zhoshi songs, with the drummers and the
kazi in the middle singing their own songs of
praise. They also dance in threes, fours or individually
(never in twos).
