    Classic Turkish Bellydancer Kudret Sandra

    Thought everyone would be interested in this: it's two clips of Kudret Sandra (Sandrali). i don't know anything about him, perhaps some of our Turkish dancer's do, but the caption says he taught other famous dancers like Prenses Banu. Nice singing voice as well.:D QXYY-i5oRKU XiBjnY1pKBQ Sita
