Throughout Bulgaria at a variety of occasions, festive, religious, or social, the people will gather to join in their national Horo, a gay dance with countless variations of music and step, in a circular or chain formation for any number of dancers. The dancing of Horos is enjoyed by everyone, from the soldiers in barracks to the workers in harvest fields, and in days gone by many trades had their own version of the dance. Then there are the Sheep's Dance, 'Violet, Little Violet' and the Rachenitsa, with its accompanying song.


In this book, illustrated by four colour plates, are detailed descriptions of four typical peasant dances with the correct dance steps and music.


Mme Raina Katsarova was head of the Folk Dance and Music department of the Ethnographical Museum in Sofia; and herself collected more than 6,000 Bulgarian folk songs and 200 dances.
