Fabulous night of music and dancing at Folk Dance Brunswick‘s first Balkan Bash. Thank you, Gogofski, for coming up from Boston! Vocalist Kasia Sokalla of Poland, Dave Golber on clarinet, Tom Pixton on accordion, and Henry Goldberg on the Balkan tupan drum created beautiful, exciting music. Thank you, newcomers, for joining in with good spirit! And thank you, Maine folk dancers, for making another Friday a celebration of community and dance.

Had a great night of dancing last night (Friday, Feb. 5) despite the challenge of having to wander through the tail end of a snowstorm. Eleven hardy souls ventured out, reviewed lots of dances that the Balkan band Gogofski will be playing for us “live” next Friday (Feb. 12), tried several delightful new dances (including a crazy-complicated Zweifacher), laughed, talked, and had fun.
