Dance House: Tallinn Dance House Musicians • Tantsumaja Viljandis
A group of musicians who started playing together at Tallinn Dance House. Every second Wednesday they gather in Hopner House, in Tallinn to play the dance tunes that the dancers have come to love over the last 30 years of Dance House movement. Most of their repertoire consists of social dances with fixed form – “Aleksandra valss”, “Kihnumua”, “Suboota” and “Padespaan” are of course amongst the favorites of all time. They also add some polkas, waltzes, reinlenders and flat foot waltzes to the mix. In recent years, the musicians have grown fond of the dances from Pakri which give a nice final touch to every party. In addition to local dances, they also have a wide variety of foreign favorites, which fit especially well to the late hours of a dance.
