The Orchestra of the National Daghestan Dance Company ("Lezginka")


A dance tune characteristic of the Mountain Jews. Tankhoi Izrailov, the director of Lezginka, heard this song from his grandmother in the city of Kuba and adopted it for this dance company. The Khars (lit. "to clap hands" in Juhuri) is very similar to Ovshori in its form and rhythm, but much slower in tempo.
