<p>[QUOTE=&quot;laura9797, post: 11579285, member: 9323&quot;]The first one represents the The Dance of the Quetzals - ancient ceremony of pre-Spanish origin, named after the sacred quetzal bird. It is generally performed at religious festivals in the mountain regions of the states of Puebla and Veracruz. Choreographically it is extremely active, at times even acrobatic. The costume is strikingly original. Keyed in red, its dominant feature is the great circular feather headdress which the dancers manage to carry skillfully through the rapid movements of the dance. The music, produced by a flute and a small drum, is primitive and penetrating; and its rhythm is further accentuated by a rattle used in the dance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
