I came and pass at her (house´s) door. My beloved is there...".

LIURAMAE-MALEJÁN-BORJA-ZARAGOZA-ESPAÑA DANZA: La danza conchera es una danza ceremonial, solar, de círculo, a ritmo de tambor que late en el centro. Los danzantes giran alrededor. con los instrumentos de cuerda diseñando la melodía. Los pies se mueven con gracia y rapidez, saltando, marcando, acariciando el suelo. El cuerpo erguido para sostener el movimiento, la cabeza alta mirando lejos, transportados a lo profundo de sí mismos. Los trajes vistosos, reflejando la luz del Sol, las plumas largas, de colores, rasgando el aire con la suavidad del vuelo del Alma... danzantes concheros hispanos.es
