Agree, just enjoy the music and the dance. No one "owns" any folk dance or folk music. Many Balkan dance melodies are common to many countries in that region. Also the dances sometimes have common elements and rhythm. The music and dance of "Eleno momo (Elenino) can be found in Bulgaria, Serbia, Romania, Macedonia, Greece or Albania. The Šop dances of Bulgaria and Serbia are similar but not the same. The dance style, music and costumes are alike in some ways but different in the details.
Ovako nesto treba da spaja ljude a ne da ih razdvaja folklor je igra pjesma druzenje ona rusi sve granice onog sto je covjeka nekada razdvajalo .... Predivna koreografija fantasticna igra...
title of movie is Šopske = Shopi. there are different dances in every part of Serbia. Shopi live in Serbia, Bulgaria and Macedonia and depends of the country they consider themselves Serbs, Bulgarian or Macedonian. So, this is both, Shopi and Serbian dance.
Manite bre ove Bugare, nemaju svoje pa bi vazda nesto tudje...Ko im je kriv kad su muzicki neobrazovani pa ni ono svoje koje imaju ne znaju da naprave...Ali je uvek bilo - "U tudjega tatka pogolema patka"- ,,,Veliki pozdrav Srbiji i svim Srbima iz Kumanova, Makedonija...
You are right, it depends how you describe the dances: by country borders or by ethnic geographical areas. What the video shows is dances and music of the Shopi people from the area called Shopluk, Шоплук, or Šopluk. The music and steps of the Shopi in the Serbian area of Pirot and Bosilegradskog Krajite are somwhat similar but also different from the Bulgarian area dances of Kjustendil, Pernik or Graovo. Bulgarian Šop dance music always have a Gaida (bag pipe) which the Serbs seldom use.
Your differences are like two fonts of the same text. Indeed there are true hidden text in the dances ("kolo" or "horo"). These dances are created and coded in the neolithic period in Mesopotamia. The embedded text is very old and very important. Keep the dances (keep the text/messages in them)!
This music is so middle eastern and the dance too gi check lebanese and syrian Palestinian and jordanian folk dance it's all frol there the first civilisations appeared in the middle east and dispersed all over europe
I'm not completely conversant with Serbian culture, so it's possible the Serbs have an area where they do this dancing and play this kind of music, but the music is very Bulgarian to me, and the dance also, and teh costumes! Both the hats and the trousers are Bulgarian in style and decoration. The move where they jump and slap a foot on the floor is something I've only seen in Bulgarian dancing . The rhythms...the second piece, the quick-quick-slow-quick-quick is a Bulgarian kopanica rhythm.
Long live Serbia!! Dearest greetings from Slovakia.

shopki zive Srbija,Blgarija i Makedonija
LEPE IGRE I KOLA.
I see now! The Shopi region is on the border between Bulgaria and Serbia. So these must be Shop dances.
A da li ti znas kako se nekad zvao vas glavni grad Sofija? SRBICA :)..... Pozdrav iz Beograda ili ti Singidunuma ;)

Matori svaka cast kako si mu objasnio kako izgledaju Gajde "Bag pipe" :D
couldn't agree more.
ovo su igre srpskih sopova te pripadaju srpskom muzickom folkloru
this is pretty pretty familiar with bulgarian shopski dances

Voii...va iubusc...
Ово је Српска игра. Да ли се теби свиђа или не то је твој проблем.
Can you explain why?
I think this word HORO comes by Greece and seams country, villige or place .*horoscope* has the radix horo-.
The clothes, shoes, dancing and music are definitely from the Shopski region of Bulgaria (around Sophia).
This music is so middle eastern and the dance too gi check lebanese and syrian Palestinian and jordanian folk dance it's all frol there the first civilisations appeared in the middle east and dispersed all over europe

I am sure it can't be considered a Serbian dance. Shops are nothing but a Bulgarian tribe, regardless of the country borders.
Пак ли крадете,серВи?
There's no way this is Serbian. It's Bulgarian!
