Dannsa Gaidhealach - Dannsa Gallda/Scottish Country Dancing: Controlle

Documentary celebrating 90 years of The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society. Featuring detailed dance instruction as well as rare archive.

A' comharrachadh 90 bliadhna dhen Chomann Rìoghail airson Dannsa-dùthcha Albannach. Aig bainnsean, Oidhche na Bliadhna Ùire, ceilidhean no aig dannsa foirmeil faodaidh Dannsa-dùthcha Albannach a bhith cho mionaideach ri ballet no direach mar hòro-gheallaidh mòr. Bidh am prògram aithriseach seo a' leantainn na dannsadairean aig Sgoil-shamhraidh Eadar-naiseanta Chill Rìmhinn air ais dhachaigh gu Munich agus Japan agus a' coimhead ris a' ghreim a tha aig dannsa-dùthcha orra.

Celebrating 90 years of The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society. At weddings, Hogmanay, a local ceilidh, or formal dinner dances, Scottish country dancing can be an art form with the precision and nuance of ballet, or just a great big glorious hooley. Following dancers at the International Summer School in St Andrews then back home to Munich and Tokyo, this warm and heartfelt documentary looks at this global phenomenon. Includes detailed dance instruction and rare archive for newcomers and aficionados alike.
