Father Frost and Snow Maiden are the most important characters of the New Year's celebration in Russia. Father Frost (Ded Moroz, Russian: Äåä Ìîðîç) plays a role similar to that of Santa Claus. The literal translation of the name would be "Grandfather Frost". However, English-speakers traditionally translate "DED MOROZ" as the alliterative "FATHER FROST". Ded Moroz is always accompanied by his granddaughter Snegurochka - Snow Maiden (Russian: Ñíåãóðî÷êà).
New York based ensemble Barynya created a special Russian New Year's program with traditional Russian winter songs, dances and music: "In the forest a fir-tree was born" (V Lesu Rodilas' Yolochka), "Small Fir Tree is Freezing during the Winter" (Malen'koi Yolochke Kholdno Zimoy), "The snowstorm is blowing along the street" (Metelitsa), "Father Frost" (Moroz-Moroz), "Five minutes" (Pyat' Minut).

Belly Dance Description
The movement vocabulary of bellydance is a conglomeration of styles from many
countries such as Turkey, Armenia, Lebanon and Egypt.
"Belly Dance" term refers to a broad range of styles united in the
use of certain isolation movements, the most prominent and pervasive of
which are the isolations of the hips.
In addition, isolations of the chest, shoulders, head, hands as well as
serpentine and undulating movements of the torso are often found. Another common trademark is a
varying degree of flirtation and coquetry. The rhythms and instrumentation used from area to area often have some commonalties
despite great regional variations but in all there is an emphasis on percussion.
The Belly Dance is also identified by swaying hips, undulating torso, and articulated isolations employed in a range of dynamic and emotional expressions. Characteristic movements in the dance include curving patterns, undulations, thrusts, lifts, locks, and drops, and shaking or quaking body movements. The focus is on isolated movements of individual parts of the body with little notice given to the footsteps. Arms and hands move fluidly, like serpents or ribbons in the air. Unusual strength and control is demonstrated in the belly area.
Costumes typically consist of a bra and hip-belt set worn over a floor length skirt. The skirt may be circular or straight. Instead of the skirt and bra, a dancer may wear a gown called a baladi dress topped with a hip-belt or a hip-scarf. Dancers may also use a length of fabric (such as silk or chiffon) during one part of the dance sequence, and she may also play finger cymbals. Costuming changes from place to place and from time to time, but the one constant is that the designs intend to emphasize and amplify the grace, power and independent control of the feminine form.
Bellydancing
as it is known today is very old. It retains its connection to fertility and eroticism by being an indispensable feature at weddings in many Middle Eastern countries, performing the multifold purpose of getting the bride and groom (who may have just met) in the mood, making a blessing of fertility on the couple, and providing entertainment for the guests. Today bellydance is enjoyed variously for its artistry, ethnicity, beauty, healthy eroticism and fun!
The term "Belly Dance" was introduced in 1893 at the Chicago World's Fair.
For the very first time the American public was introduced to wonders never
before seen. Businessman Sol Bloom was trying to entice fair goers from these
awesome sights into his pavilion: The Algerian dancers of Morocco! In a very
successful attempt to draw in viewers Sol promoted his act as “Belly Dancers.”
At a time when a women’s calf was considered risque, Sol soon had all the
publicity he needed. A Senator tried to shut down the pavilion. Newspapers
reported the scandal and throngs of the curious lined up to buy a ticket.
Inside they were treated to fully clothed folk dancers, with nary a belly to be seen.
Belly dancing is natural to a woman's body with movements emanating from the torso rather than in the legs and feet. The dance often focuses upon isolating different parts of the body, moving them independently in sensuous patterns, weaving together the entire feminine form. Belly dancing is generally performed barefoot.
