Azerbaijan part 3 - Folk dances of Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan's national dance!
Azerbaijan's national dance - it is a very ancient and beautiful art of dance of the Azerbaijani people. Music size Azerbaijani folk dances - 6/8 and 3/4. In nature and the rhythm of Azerbaijani folk dances are divided into smooth and lively dances. Dancing has its characteristic pattern, which is determined by their rhythmic construction. Basically, Azerbaijani dance consists of three parts: the first part of the dance is in the circle, the second part of the dance - this lyrical freezing in place (so called "syuzma"), and the third part of the dance consists of re walking in a circle, but more confidently, quickly and solemnly! Many Azerbaijani dances, especially the oldest, are the names of animals or plants, "lale" (Poppy Field), "gazelles" (gazelle), "benevshe" (violet), "innabi" (the fruit of the fruit), and many others. Virtually all Azerbaijani dances are solo.

Bulba (Бульба, [ˈbulʲba]) is a concert dance based on Belarusian folk traditions, choreographed, among several others, by Igor Moiseyev. The word means "potato" in Ukrainian and Belarusian languages.

Moiseyev created the dance after visiting Belarus in late 1930s. He masterfully recreated the Belarusian folklore, so that the dance has become Belarusian national dance, featured by all national folk dance ensembles.

Brazil part 3 - Carnival in Brazil

Carnival in Brazil - Beautiful Brazilian Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro
This is a small sample of the Carnaval samba parade in Rio de Janeiro. It covers one out of the 14 parades to happen during two days and flashes of some of the other 13 parades.

I would love to upload an HD version of this video but youtube doesn't allow it without losing its view count and comments. So maybe in the future when they allow such feature, I'll do it.

NOTE: No arrogant or derogatory remarks, please. They will be promptly removed.
