Of all the Balkan countries, Romania is the most prone to name dances after instrumental melodies rather than the lyrics of songs. Brâul de la Făgăraș is a typical example. It consists of 4 melodies, A, A-variation in the same key, B in another key, B-variation, repeat. The key distinction for this Brâul is the syncopated rhythm Quick-Slow, Slow, Quick-Slow, as seen in the first measure.
