Concerts and dance-house

Zurgo is keen on having dance-houses for Hungarians and foreigners, children and adults alike. The traditional Csango ring, chain, row and couple dances consist of simple steps that can be learnt by anybody. The members of the group can also teach songs or tell folk tales to audiences.
