Aman Folk Ensemble of Los Angeles

In response to the query about the Aman Folk Ensemble of Los Angeles,
theirHungarian material is of a veryhigh quality because two Allami
dancers, Szabo Istvan "Kovacs" (former artistic director of Karpatok) and
Toth Tibor (formerly of Cleveland, Ohio) have overseen Aman's Hungarian
material in thepast two years.Kovacs is now co-director with his partner,
Rosina Didyk, who is also superb in Hungarian styling. Theorchestra is one
of the best in North America and was shared with the Karpatok Dance
Ensemble. Aman is nowregrouping and I am not certain what current
repertoire is but last season included a fantastic Gypsy numberand a
Szekelyfoldi choreography. Anasztazia Herold, Los Angeles AHUNGARA@aol.com

Csárdás Hungarian Dancers, Austin, TX

Csárdás Hungarian Dancers is a Hungarian performing and social dance group
in Austin, Texas, that has been active for over 20 years. Our primary goal
is to have fun dancing, but we also perform occasionally at localfestivals
or other events with the hope of introducing Hungarian music and dance to
the community at large. We periodically have workshops — in 1996-97
../Timar/Sándor & Böske Timár and Zoltán Nagy were able to come to Austin;
and in previous years Sándor Román and Sára Feri have visited. Some
groupmembers have gone tocamps such as Barátság, the Válaszút camp in
Transylvania and the east coast symposium. And, we periodically travel to
other events — in 1996 eleven folks went to Louisville to see
../Muzsikas/Muzsikás and Márta Sebestyén, and in 1994 six of us from
Austin and two from Houston went to Arizona to see the State Folk Ensemble
perform. We have an aspiring local Hungarian dance band called Kolorash.
They occasionally play for our performancesand táncházak. But as they are
not always available, we often resort to our sizeable collection of tapes
and CDs. The performing group of Csárdás Hungarian Dancers is also
connected to a student group at the University of Texas. So, some of our
members are students, and we are always hoping they will stay in Austin
after they graduate. We would be happy to share our fun, enthusiasm, and
knowledge with other Hungarian dancers in the world. You're welcome to
come dance with us anytime!

CSURDÖNGÖLO FOLK DANCE ENSEMBLE – CSURDÖNGÖLO NÉPTÁNC EGYÜTTES

The CSURDÖNGÖLO FOLK DANCE ENSEMBLE is rooted in the NY-NJ Hungarian
American community, primarily in New Brunswick a hotbed, as they call
it, for Hungarian-Americans. Primarily made of sons and daughters of
emmigrated Hungarians, Csurdöngölo has evolved into one of America’s
leading ethnic dance ensembles. The group’s name comes from Hungarian for
barn stomper and the custom which called upon villagers to stamp down the
earthen floor of a newly built barn. What better way to have some fun
while working as a community. Don’t stomp on it. Dance on it! The
energetic style of that stomping is symbolic of the vigor with which these
artists carry on the joyful celebrations of their heritage. For more

Tancegyuttes) was founded in 1984 by Susanna Toth-Blackburn, as part of
the Ottawa Hungarian School. First the children, then their parents and
older siblings began to dance; as these children grew up, teachers and
choeographers had to be imported to keep up with their growing knowledge
base and skills. First, Ilona Kovacs (St. Catherine's), then Kalman
Dreisziger (Montreal), and later Bela Gazdag (Szekesfehervar), Peter Ertl
(Honved Egyuttes, Budapest), Dobi Gabor and Hugi (Kodaly, Toronto), Peter
Levai and Zsuzsa Kiss (Budapest), Zoltan Farkas and Toth Ildiko (Batyu and
Fecske)(Budapest), and lately, for extended periods over three years,
Szucs Gabor and Urban Maria (Jaszbereny), who have almost become our
permanent choreographers. They will be here again next week, to teach in
Ottawa, Toronto and Montreal for five weeks, and to serve as the
evaluating committee for PONTOZO 2000 (May 19-22) here in Ottawa. The high
point of the troupe's development thus far was the period from 1994-1998:
performances in the Corel Centre,the organization of the Great Hungarian
Picnic, circa 1900, for Canada Day, 1995 and at Canoe '97 in Dartmouth,
Nova Scotia, where we represented Hungary at the Hungarian Embassy's
request, as the festival's flag was handed over to the Hungarian
committee, in preparation for the next games, held in Szeged the following
year. One of our dancers accompanied the World-Wide Dance for Peace troupe
to Shanghai to perform Kalotaszegi legenyes at the International
Children's Festival in 1994. Bori Kontes, a graduate of our children's
group and star of the adult troupe, is presently in demand to teach
"Hungarian" to folk dance groups in Quebec. Despite the relatively small
size of our city, it is the capital of Canada, and therefore the site of
many major festivals; TULIPAN has performed in the Parliament Buildings
several times, during the Canada Day show on Parliament Hill, and in the
National Arts Centre (not the main stage!) We are presently at the stage
of building the troupe again, after the departure of several long-time
members to university, marriage, etc. We number 20 in the preforming
troupe, and approximately 10 in each of the two children's groups (named
"Eszterlanc" and "Gyongyvirag". The senior ladies' ensemble is also 10
strong, calling itself "Nefelejts." For information, contact President,
