Khorovod (Хоровод)
Known as Tanok (танок) in Ukrainian and Karagod (карагод) in Belarusian, the dance is a traditional Slavic art form that combines both a circle dance and chorus singing.
- traditional Russian folk dance that combines chastushka (a traditional folk poem that is often in the form of satire) with spirited dancing. The dancing usually has no set choreography and consists mostly of fancy stomping and squatting. The refrain “Barynya, barynya, sudarynya-barynya” (landlady, landlady, madam-landlady), is also typically repeated throughout the course of the dance
