Fonó Wednesday dance instruction and dance house: Buzai dances

Buza is a settlement in the North Mezőség region of Transylvania, approximately 35 km from Szamosújvár.
As far as its musical characteristics are concerned, it is connected to the Tóvidék area found in North Mezőség, to which the region of Melegföldvár and Feketelak also belong. From a dance perspective, however, it leans more towards Inner Mezőség.

The name of the settlement is identical with the Árpád-era personal name Búza, and points to an archaic method of place-name formation.

Its inhabitants at that time were primarily Saxons (hence the German name of the settlement - Busendorf), a significant portion of whom for unknown reasons emigrated in the following century and founded Teke. Those who remained became Hungarianized over the course of the 16th century.

Like most Transylvanian settlements, Buza was not spared by the storms of history: in 1241 by the Tatars, in 1545 by the Moldavian voivode, in 1602 by Basta, and in 1690 and 1717 it was ravaged and plundered by Turks and Tatars.

The new topic of our Wednesday course is the dance tradition of the Buza region.
