A Balkan Dance Medley! • (World Dance Series - Special) | Vasilis
The Balkans! 🇦🇱 🇧🇦 🇧🇬 🇭🇷 🇬🇷 🇲🇪 🇲🇰 🇷🇴 🇷🇸 🇸🇮 🇹🇷 | Today's special episode is the most beautiful, but most complicated, peninsula of Europe! ~
The message is quite simple; 🕊️ peace! The Balkans is considered Europe's powder keg ready to explode any minute now. We ought to abolish this title and work towards a better future. Work towards peace. Through this video, I hope I am showing you that each and everyone mentioned is so similar with one another and fighting (verbally or worse) brings nothing in the end. We eat the same things, we have the same mentality, we have the same instruments, we have similar dances and rhythms and the list goes on. ☮️ We are powerful all united and not divided. ☮️🌹

SOME INFO:
* Kosovo is a partially recognised republic. It declared independence from Serbia in 2008, and has since gained diplomatic recognition by 97 member states of the United Nations.
The map chosen is defined by the Soča-Vipava-Krka-Sava-Danube border suggestion. Entirely in the peninsula are Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Montenegro and North Macedonia. Mostly in the peninsula are Croatia (southern mainland), Greece (Macedonia, Thrace, Thessaly, Epirus, Central Greece, Peloponnese), Italy (Trieste and Monfalcone), Romania (Dobruja), Serbia (Central Serbia), Slovenia (southwestern part) and Turkey (Eastern Thrace). Italy is not considered a Balkan state. Slovenia is also not considered a Balkan state by ethnologists, due to it being part of the Austro-Hungarian empire thus having Central European mentality and culture. Greece is a Western country with a Mediterranean culture. Even so, its mainland is considered Balkan by ethnologists, for having similar traditions and mentality, but its islands are entirely in the Mediterranean sphere.

Balkans are the culturally richest nations in Europe with unique traditions .
Absolutely :)
Oh yes, so stunningly amazing & beautiful Sir! You have an interesting name there. I'm guessing you're from Sri Lanka. I used to work with a Sri Lankan lady with your surname , but i also knew an Indian lady with this surname too. I guess it makes sense, when you think of the history of both Sri Lanka & India & the close geographical logistics. Peace & take care.
Because the oldest European Race is from Balkan Illyrian-Hellens🇦🇱🇬🇷
ı agree.
@@noizy829 Not really, Albanians and Greeks are Paleo-Balkanic people (native in Balkan peninsula), and have majority Neolithic genetics (early farmers in Europe) but that doesn't mean Europeans originates from Albanians and Greeks bruhh.
Where politics devides us, music unites us.
May be not politics ( because they can on contrary gather us like Tito for Yugoslavia or Garibaldi for Italy ? ) but malicious and predatory superpowers in the neighborhood or far away like Nato or western EU ...

I am from Romania, watching this and seeing how similar dace traditions and life still we all have made me think of one thing, it doesn't matter what language we talk or how the country we live in is called, we all have the same roots so we should be more united. Good bless us all and have mercy on us!
unity is not necessary as much as being educated and having basic human features like compassion, understanding, and so on

Thank you my brother, greetings from Türkiye
Croatian and especially Slovenian music different from the rest of the Balkans.
Im shqiptar (kosovar) and I’ve been in Serbia, Belgrad is beautiful.
I am Greek and I have Slavic and Turkish roots, I loved this video so much, and I could see that many dances had a few similarities ❤️
I wish I will live long enough to see Balkan United and respectful towards each other. We are so cute while supporting each other! No one needs war, it doesn’t do any good, who wants their fathers, brothers or family killed ? No one, it does hurt the same for everyone. The day we will meet our creator, will matter who we are as individuals not as a country so leave borders behind we are citizens of the same world! We are 1, the human race ❤️ Love and Peace!
You wish you were infinite years old ? 😂
Every Balkan people are my brother. Proud to be Balkan guy. We must be united and have more love for each other. Western Europe always wants us divided and for this create wars so like this we will be weak. Dont believe to them. If we are United Balkan we dont need Europe we can be the most powerfull in Europe. We are the same people same tradition same culture. Long Live to all Balkan brothers and sisters. Much love from Albania
True.United We can live .Divided we will fall. Friends from Tamizh Nadu South India .India
It just crossed my mind almost the same thing. There is not too much hope for normality in the western world. Their roots are gone, their traditions have vanished, their love for the land they were born in, their faith is dust in the wind, their ancestors forgotten. But there is hope in the Balkans if we don t get too westernized. We should be so proud for the way we are, and not made to feel like the "poor neighbour" everywhere we go.
@@nataliagaicu2631 we are poor because of bad politics but as people we are the best and full of human values. Wish you the best Balkan sister
Hajde!!! I’m also Albanian and I agree, we must love all Balkan people! 🌸
Well Russia wanted to divide Albania even more than the West already did in 1912, so it’s not just Western Europe.
I'm from North Macedonia, I'm Albanian and I have respect from all Balkan countries and I hope that this hatred will end soon. Greetings to you all, only with love can you do anything

@@franski6575 Yeah, but some nations wanted strongly to depart and there should been a reason for that. Plus not all Balkan countries took part in this project. But we can learn a lot from Yugo experience in case we want to have Balkan states in future, for example.

And Macedonians too

Great video. It shows how many similarities there are between all our cultures. As someone from Kosovo, I can say you did a really good job with the Kosovan dances!
I never met my father and six years ago I've done DNA ancestry test to verify my ethnicity from father's side. It showed 48% of Balkan ancestry(Bulgaria, Romania, Greece and Albania). No wonder I always liked Balkan music and dances, long time before I discovered my ethnicity.

So I know this is a weird place to get emotional, but hear me out: I live in the US and here no one really talks about the Balkans (or most of Eastern Europe) so I didn't know anything about these countries and their cultures for a long time. At the same time, I'm Ashkenazi Jewish, so the traditional music from my heritage sounds similar to that of the Balkans. I had always just assumed that not many people knew the style of music and that it was dying out. I'm so happy I was wrong. It's amazing to listen to songs that I previously thought where an isolated phenomena, and realize that there's an entire region that gets it. It's been equally cool to hear music from the other side of the world and feel almost at home and familiar. I've been trying to lean more about the Balkans recently. It's awesome and y'all have the coolest culture! Anyway, that's it. Have a nice day :)
That was a great message! Thank you very much! :)
That's Great Hannah! My family is from Macedonia and I married an Ashkenazi Jewish woman. Our families always loved and got along well with each other as there were so many shared values and cultural elements. Klezmer sounds VERY much like Macedonian dance music! Our people even look physically alike -- people often puzzled over whether I was born Jewish or my wife was Greek or Macedonian. And Vailis, if you read this, Thank you SO much for this treat!
Hannah 🥰 our culture is still alive! I am Romanian and my husband is from Serbia but we moved as kids to Sweden! I remember when growing up in Romania everybody in Bucharest, where I’m from, listening to American/English music, Italian, Greek and some Arabic & Turkish! Anything but native music! Funny thing tho, as soon as many left Romania they suddenly started to listen to their native music! Me, I listen to everything cause I’m music addict ❤️❤️❤️ no music no life
Shalom from Serbia❤️we are very similar, almost the same. It is a shame because in the US they just think that Europe means France, Germany, UK, Spain, Italy… The Balkans with it all countries , culture are probably the most beautiful what Europe can show. I have friends who are Ashkanazi and Sephardic Jews and we were positiv shoked how similar we are. Greetings from Serbia
It's quite great, Hannah, that you've found a kindred cultural spirit at the other side of the world, namely in the Balkans. I know that feeling as well, as I myself feel strangely fascinated and "at home" with the traditional music of several other regions of the world I have little or no connection with. Though, of course, Klezmer and Balkan music do indeed share many similarities. In that respect, I would highly recommend watching one Balkan documentary (if you can find it), called "Whose song is this?" ("Чия е тази песен?" in the original). It was made by a Bulgarian woman, Adela Peeva, and it starts almost like a joke - a Bulgarian, a Serbian, a Macedonian, a Greek and a Turk are gathered in a pub in Istanbul. Anyway, the movie is about a song (a melody, actually) that exists in all Balkan countries and, naturally, most people here believe it's purely their own song. So the author sets out on a journey across the region, showing the different songs based on that common melody. Unfortunately, something that could serve to unite us, instead tends to divide us and Peeva demonstrated that with some rather provocative segments during her final demonstrations in Bulgaria and Serbia (i.e. where she and her husband are from, respectively). In any case, what I find interesting about that melody and which I am very sad that Peeva didn't really explore further, is that it's a melody stretching far beyond the Balkans - from Spain all the way to India. And from what I've seen, its origin actually seems to be from the al-Andalus, from the Sepharadic Jews, and from there it seems to have spread east, influencing an Italian Renaissance composer, Boney M's hit "Rasputin" and possibly even the national anthem of Israel. It's quite fascinating! Greetings from Bulgaria!

Some Balkan ways of dancing is similar to traditional Irish way of dancing, too. Isn't it?
@@amelie4205 Yes, there are similarities in the dancers movements and also in the footwork 🙂
Как же порой хочется, чтобы люди устали от агрессии, успокоились и... стали учиться танцевать, и петь. 🙏🙏🙏
