The second edition of The Roots of Dance project is already behind us. This time, students from art universities and colleges in the United States, India, China and Malaysia had the chance to learn the basics of the Polish traditional music and dance from Polandʼs lowlands and highlands.
The project was realised online and resulted in choreographic etudes created by the participants, which can already be watched on our website.
We also invite you to watch a video summary of the project:
