To Dro Retourné

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The An Dro Retourné is a Breton circle dance or row dance . It is a modern modification of the an-dro , a well-known Breton branch double. He is also known as Changé-tu, after the song that is sung for this choreography.

Here in the refrain the row of dancers is opened by the larger execution after emphasizing the arm movements (the last two double steps). This is followed by two half-left turns with Branle double steps, each of which is accompanied by a clap after the start. This part of the gossip is repeated. The song is intoned in Kan ha diskan .
