Orient

Orient is a new applicable original work by Haakon Esplo. This time, he is inspired by oriental music and dance.

1001 Nights ... Arabian Nights, or Stories from the Morning Land. This enormous collection of tales from the Orient has many names and has since the first translation into French in 1704 been the dominant source of our ideas about Arab culture. The stories come from the Middle Ages in which we can daydream among sultans, Caliphs, harem and magic lamps. Who do not know Aladdin or Ali Baba and the forty thieves? Orient is an oriental dance inspired by a fantastic fairytale world.
