from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ilka Peter (born August 23, 1903 in Budapest , Austria-Hungary as Ilka Zezulak ; died January 23, 1999 in Vienna ) was an Austrian researcher of folk dances and a dance teacher.

Live and act

Peter attended the Higher Graphic Federal Teaching and Research Institute in Vienna and then obtained a diploma in gymnastics, dance and acrobatics at the Music Academy, today's University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna . She founded a dance, gymnastics and acrobatics school and taught at the Max Reinhardt Seminar and at the Vienna Conservatory . She also worked for the Vienna Boys' Choir .

Under the influence of the folklorist Raimund Zoder , she began research in the Salzburg area, where she examined the dance of the Perchten in Pinzgau , the kilt walk and the Ranggeln . She wrote the first complete presentation of the Salzburg folk dances and, in 1949, the first scientific film document on folk dance in Austria. In 1956 she was given the title of professor.
