Czech Maypole with Ribbons ?
Oct. 4th, 2014 08:47 pm Vera, could you take a look at this one?
Scroll forward to 31:23 - this is the first time I've seen a Czech maypole dance using ribbons, but it's done by an American folk group (though they seem to be doing specifically Czech and Slovak dances, so I hope they've done some research).
I couldn't catch the name of the village they gave.
It's only a plait, followed by what I assume to be more typical Czech maypole dances without ribbons. What do you reckon? Do you think the ribbon dance is authentic, or just tacked on to the real maypole dances?
