*2nd Generation dance. A dance that developed and was disseminated in a non-traditional way. 2G dances are specific – have a fixed format designed to correspond with the arrangement of a particular recording., whereas 1G dances are generic – have a shorter sequence that works with live music – where many different songs are played and arrangements vary according to the tastes of musicians and dancers.

Above is a link to the music we use for the dance. Performers: Karmon Israeli Singers.
Below is a much prettier version, though a bit slow. Anyone know who the singer is?
