CzardasCzardas or Csrds (Hungarian csrds, from csrda, a tavern, beer house) is a traditional Hungarian folk dance. It is of Magyar and Roma origin. A more correct spelling of consonants (that would match native sounds) would be Chardash. Csrds is characterized by a variation in tempo: it starts out slowly (lass) and ends in a very fast tempo (friss). The music is in 2/4 or 4/4 time. The dancers are both male and female, with the women dressed in traditional wide skirts, usually colored red, which form a distinctive shape when they whirl. Classical artists who have used csrds themes in their work have included Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms, Johann Strauss, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and others. External links
