Dandari

Dandari is a University of Latvia dance group established forty years ago. Its broad repertoire includes partner dances, multi-couple dances, quadrilles and, of course, everything one might need to lead a seasonal festival celebration. Dandari’s new album, Divatā (The Two of Us), features a selection of the group’s current dance favourites. The musicians play diatonic accordion, flute, mandolin and drum, and all the musicians and dancers also sing. The arrangements are simple and the sound could be described as relatively mellow.
