Hello Chi.
Didem is one of the most famous Turkish belly dancers nowadays. What she danced was a modern Turkish interpretation (actually a mix of Turkish, Lebanese, Egyptian and American Cabaret style
) of the classical Egyptian song Alf Leyla Wa Leyla (as Sidonia already mentioned). And I must say, although I am a purist of the Egyptian style when it comes to classical Egyptian dance music, I really enjoyed Didem's interpretation
She war expressing the music very well and very accurately, although in a different way than an Egyptian dancer would have done. I was also amazed about how well those Turkish musicians on the video performed this very Egyptian song:eek: Altogether a great dancing and music performance. Now I know who my favorite Turkish belly dancer is
