I can quite frankly say that for me this is maybe THE most beautiful and moving video I have seen on UA-cam EVER! And from 2006 I think I have seen tons of memorable videos... Congratulations! Astonishing work!
Magnificent choreography & composition; masculinity, femininity, artistic sensuality; a missed opportunity of unity for all 3 cultures in history in spite of significant contribution of each to world culture and heritage. Simply wow! Love to see more of the Assyrian song and dance, deserving to be presented to the world stage on silver plate!
it's one of the most complete documentaries I've seen, too bad there weren't the Armenian dances from Cilicia and Anatolia, but otherwise a treat I didn't want it to end! Loved by an Anatolian Armenian 🇦🇲🇬🇷❤️🤍💙
It is about an hour that I have seen this video and I am still staying speechless in front of my screen. I am wondering if it is real or not. Your brilliant Idea (to bring together the 3 cultures) and the quality of your work. I have no words....
Hi from Christian Indonesia ❤️ ✝️☦️ Great Culture and Beautiful Dance Stay strong my Christian Brother and Sister , Jesus bless you Edit : Merry Christmas ( Selamat Natal ) ❤️
Amazing work, congratulations! I had goosebumps all over my body while watching the different dances and listening to these traditional songs! Greetings from a Cappadocian Greek to all of the peoples of Anatolia.🤍
Είμαι μισή Πόντια μισή Καππαδόκισα τρίτης γενιας στην Ελλάδα. Καταλαβαίνω ποντιακά και λίγα τούρκικα, εμαθα να χωρεύω απο μικρή αλλά όπως και να έχει η καθημερινότητά μου διαφέρει πολύ.

Thank you, a great work is done. We all have the same way of cultural thinking, and you show that for just 14 minutes. I would like to hear or to read also more stories about these nations and their dances. Thank you for your work.
Because of people like you this world is worth to live in. Thank you so much for the hard work in creating this wonderful video and then sharing it with us. What a fantastic feast to my ears, eyes... to my soul. My both parents are from Trabzon(Trebizond) and l grew up listening to similar tunes. Seriously, thank you!
Me gusta este ritmo de Anatolia , raíces que nos llegan al corazón ♥️, vibrante , gozoso, fogosos cantos, que embelesan, saludos desde Lomas de Polanco de Guadalajara, Jalisco, México 🇲🇽, saludos
Unbelievably wonderful! I miss the dance music of Turabdin in the local language (Western Assyrian, Surayt). Despite this, this is one of the best videos in UA-cam. Love to Greece, Armenia and Assyria!
As a Turk, I was born in Antep. There are still Armenian traces in many places, especially in historical buildings. When I lived there and looked at those historical buildings, I always tried to look at them from the perspective of an Armenian, not a Turk. The dances and music in the video are still used, even the words in the Cappadocian melodies are still exactly the same. It is very sad that you are away from the lands that are precious to you, but on the other hand, thank you for leaving this culture to us. I hope that one day we will be able to sing, play and enjoy these melodies here again. Thank you Vasilis

Հոյակա՜պ։ Thank you for making this video, my brother. My grandparents survived the Armenian Genocide in Cilicia and Sebastia. Cheers from the USA. 🇺🇸֍🇺🇸
Lots of love from an Assyrian. We love our Armenian and Greek brothers. My great grandparents are from Mardin where once Assyrians and Armenians were the majority living together as one people. As the genocide progressed, Assyrians and Armenians in the Diyarbekir Vilayet joined together in resistance against the Turkish and Kurdish Ottoman armies in fighting in the defence of Midyat, Iwardo (Gülgöze), Azakh (İdil), Basibrin (Haberli), Benebil (Bulbul), Beth-Debe, Hah, Hebob, Kerburan (Dergecit), and Zaz
As I kurd, I & many kurds apologize for this genocide crime. I wish all native of these lands could come back to these lands live with in a rich culture. Btw many kurds helped Assyrian and Armenians also.
@@lavieenconfinement3511 Kurds have apologized for the corporation with Turks against Christians of Anatolia, Kemal Ataturk promised them to give independence and he didn't keep his word ,Kurds were betrayed and upraised against Turks and they were slaughtered by them , now Kurds are with us in case of war between Greece and Turkey
@edps cupcake yes my brother/sister you are right. I am originally from Amed and I have 2 armenians friends. When they are with kurds they call themselves as Armenian. But when they meet with turks they identify themselves as Kurd. It's all because the racism and turkish fascism. Turk killed Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, Pontos and now they slaughter Kurds.
@edps cupcake I was a Kurd, my great-grandfather saved two Armenian little girls by hiding them in the basement and looked after them as his adopted daughters until he got old and died. Although he was a Muslim, he never interfered with their religion. He saved 200 thousand Assyrian daughters from YPG ISIS in Syria. They were raping them. I love Assyrians / Armenians / Assyrians I'm sorry our grandfather betrayed you and they were punished for betraying you anyway I'm very good to you and will never be an enemy to you
Thank you so much. The first piece is Aysenur Kolivar singing the traditional song of hamshil Armenians of the Black Sea region. Remember her performing ages ago on the concert of Armenian folk songs - she is a wonderful singer. I really love the energy you show in these dances. Yarkushta is a very energetic dance, the dance of warriors.
Thank you to my Godmother for sharing this video! I am Assyrian on my father's side. We are from the Urmia region. This is so clever! I am just overwhelmed by the creativity that went in to this video!!! I love watching dancing from the old country. I have a photograph my cousin Michael sent me of my Nana and Aunties dancing in their backyard in Illinois. I would like to point out that while you will see Assyrian women wearing scarves and headdresses: they are not required! We will not be killed for not wearing them. Hair coverings are beautiful and also useful. In times where you did not wash your hair every day like some ppl do now; covering your hair helped to keep it clean. Brushing your hair out daily brings the oils off your scalp and to the ends of your hair to keep them from drying out. Blessings to you for this stunning video! And thank you so VERY much for the ending! I am glad that you were not afraid to end it with the fire and the diaspora.

Greetings from Assyria my brothers and sisters! In the Anatolian peninsula history unfolds, Assyrians, Greeks, Armenians of old. Whispers of empires, tales untold, In the land where ancient stories hold. In melodies that span the ages wide, Assyrian echoes, a cultural tide. Greek rhythms dance with a timeless pride, Armenian tunes, where traditions abide. Zerna, duduk and Kaval is where it's at, Folk dance rhythms, as the story molds. In the pulse of rave, ancient meets bold, A dance of souls, in a trance, untold! (Shlama Ashuria)

Magnificent choreography & composition; masculinity, femininity, artistic sensuality; a missed opportunity of unity for all 3 cultures in history in spite of significant contribution of each to world culture and heritage. Simply wow! Love to see more of the Assyrian song and dance, deserving to be presented to the world stage on silver plate!
it's one of the most complete documentaries I've seen, too bad there weren't the Armenian dances from Cilicia and Anatolia, but otherwise a treat I didn't want it to end! Loved by an Anatolian Armenian 🇦🇲🇬🇷❤️🤍💙
Thank you! 🇦🇲 🤍 🇬🇷
To be fair, Yarkhushta may've originated in Sassun and Mush, but it extended all throughout the Armenian Highlands all the way until Cappadocia

It is about an hour that I have seen this video and I am still staying speechless in front of my screen. I am wondering if it is real or not. Your brilliant Idea (to bring together the 3 cultures) and the quality of your work. I have no words....
How beautiful and how close our cultures are. Love from Armenia...
♥️♥️
We always love you my Armenian brothers! From Greece!

I can’t thank you enough for this amazing wonderful video, it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you and god bless you!

Thank you!!

Amazing work, congratulations! I had goosebumps all over my body while watching the different dances and listening to these traditional songs! Greetings from a Cappadocian Greek to all of the peoples of Anatolia.🤍
Thank you!! Greetings!
Είμαι μισή Πόντια μισή Καππαδόκισα τρίτης γενιας στην Ελλάδα. Καταλαβαίνω ποντιακά και λίγα τούρκικα, εμαθα να χωρεύω απο μικρή αλλά όπως και να έχει η καθημερινότητά μου διαφέρει πολύ. Κάθε φορά όμως όταν ακούω ποντιακή μουσική και βλέπω ποντιακούς χορούς αναμοχλεύονται συναισθήματα μέσα μου που μέχρι το προηγούμενο δευτερόλεπτο ούτε καν γνώριζα ότι τα είχα.
Να'σαι καλά Βασίλη Πετρόπουλε! Αξίζουν τις ιδιαίτερες τιμές οι λαοί μας! Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks, we are all brothers!

Thank you, Edo!! :) ^_^
Thank you, a great work is done. We all have the same way of cultural thinking, and you show that for just 14 minutes. I would like to hear or to read also more stories about these nations and their dances. Thank you for your work.
Thank you very much, I love your work! Շատ շնորհակալություն :)
Because of people like you this world is worth to live in. Thank you so much for the hard work in creating this wonderful video and then sharing it with us. What a fantastic feast to my ears, eyes... to my soul. My both parents are from Trabzon(Trebizond) and l grew up listening to similar tunes. Seriously, thank you!
Me gusta este ritmo de Anatolia , raíces que nos llegan al corazón ♥️, vibrante , gozoso, fogosos cantos, que embelesan, saludos desde Lomas de Polanco de Guadalajara, Jalisco, México 🇲🇽, saludos
You are very talented mate thank you very much god bless all Greeks and Assyrians and Arminians
Love you guys 😘😘😘😘

Blessings to you!
Thank you mate, greetings from Armenia, i hope one day we can come back to our lands and again dancing our ancient dances
We will
I go crazy for your dancing 😍 Lots of love to you for representing our cultures ! We all appreciate that really much ! ❤ We're the ogs 🇦🇲❤🤍💙🇬🇷 😌
Thank you very much!❤
Muhteşem ❤️❤️❤️Amazing work I congratulate you with all my heart ,makes me feel so lucky to be part of this culture.
Unbelievably wonderful! I miss the dance music of Turabdin in the local language (Western Assyrian, Surayt). Despite this, this is one of the best videos in UA-cam. Love to Greece, Armenia and Assyria!
Thank you!! :)
As a Turk, I was born in Antep. There are still Armenian traces in many places, especially in historical buildings. When I lived there and looked at those historical buildings, I always tried to look at them from the perspective of an Armenian, not a Turk. The dances and music in the video are still used, even the words in the Cappadocian melodies are still exactly the same. It is very sad that you are away from the lands that are precious to you, but on the other hand, thank you for leaving this culture to us. I hope that one day we will be able to sing, play and enjoy these melodies here again. Thank you Vasilis
❤thank you dear
We will be back

Αξίζουν συγχαρητήρια σε αυτήν την προσπάθεια του Βασίλη Πετρόπουλου. Αναδεικνύει τους στενούς δεσμούς που έχουν αυτές οι τρείς εθνικές κοινότητες. Σίγουρα τους συνδέουν εκτός παό την θρησκεία και πολλά ακόμα πράγματα στην χιλιάδων χρόνων συμβίωση τους στα μέρη από όπου όχι μόνο εκδιώχθηκαν αλλά κυνηγήθηκαν και γενοκτονήθηκαν.Μπράβο για άλλη μια φορά Πέτρο.

Thank you for making this video, my brother. My grandparents survived the Armenian Genocide in Cilicia and Sebastia.
Cheers from the USA. 🇺🇸֍🇺🇸
Lots of love from an Assyrian. We love our Armenian and Greek brothers. My great grandparents are from Mardin where once Assyrians and Armenians were the majority living together as one people. As the genocide progressed, Assyrians and Armenians in the Diyarbekir Vilayet joined together in resistance against the Turkish and Kurdish Ottoman armies in fighting in the defence of Midyat, Iwardo (Gülgöze), Azakh (İdil), Basibrin (Haberli), Benebil (Bulbul), Beth-Debe, Hah, Hebob, Kerburan (Dergecit), and Zaz
Respect!! ✌️🙌
As I kurd, I & many kurds apologize for this genocide crime. I wish all native of these lands could come back to these lands live with in a rich culture.
Btw many kurds helped Assyrian and Armenians also.
@@lavieenconfinement3511 Kurds have apologized for the corporation with Turks against Christians of Anatolia, Kemal Ataturk promised them to give independence and he didn't keep his word ,Kurds were betrayed and upraised against Turks and they were slaughtered by them , now Kurds are with us in case of war between Greece and Turkey
@edps cupcake yes my brother/sister you are right. I am originally from Amed and I have 2 armenians friends. When they are with kurds they call themselves as Armenian. But when they meet with turks they identify themselves as Kurd. It's all because the racism and turkish fascism. Turk killed Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, Pontos and now they slaughter Kurds.
@edps cupcake I was a Kurd, my great-grandfather saved two Armenian little girls by hiding them in the basement and looked after them as his adopted daughters until he got old and died. Although he was a Muslim, he never interfered with their religion. He saved 200 thousand Assyrian daughters from YPG ISIS in Syria. They were raping them. I love Assyrians / Armenians / Assyrians I'm sorry our grandfather betrayed you and they were punished for betraying you anyway I'm very good to you and will never be an enemy to you
Thank you so much. The first piece is Aysenur Kolivar singing the traditional song of hamshil Armenians of the Black Sea region. Remember her performing ages ago on the concert of Armenian folk songs - she is a wonderful singer. I really love the energy you show in these dances. Yarkushta is a very energetic dance, the dance of warriors.
Minor asia my homeland,You will not be forgotten my heart is there,Love from cyprus!!!🇨🇾❤

Thank you to my Godmother for sharing this video! I am Assyrian on my father's side. We are from the Urmia region.
This is so clever! I am just overwhelmed by the creativity that went in to this video!!! I love watching dancing from the old country. I have a photograph my cousin Michael sent me of my Nana and Aunties dancing in their backyard in Illinois.
I would like to point out that while you will see Assyrian women wearing scarves and headdresses: they are not required! We will not be killed for not wearing them. Hair coverings are beautiful and also useful. In times where you did not wash your hair every day like some ppl do now; covering your hair helped to keep it clean. Brushing your hair out daily brings the oils off your scalp and to the ends of your hair to keep them from drying out.
Blessings to you for this stunning video! And thank you so VERY much for the ending! I am glad that you were not afraid to end it with the fire and the diaspora.
Thank you so much!!

Greetings from Assyria my brothers and sisters! In the Anatolian peninsula history unfolds, Assyrians, Greeks, Armenians of old. Whispers of empires, tales untold, In the land where ancient stories hold. In melodies that span the ages wide, Assyrian echoes, a cultural tide. Greek rhythms dance with a timeless pride, Armenian tunes, where traditions abide. Zerna, duduk and Kaval is where it's at, Folk dance rhythms, as the story molds. In the pulse of rave, ancient meets bold, A dance of souls, in a trance, untold! (Shlama Ashuria)
Basema khon! Thank you so much this was so educational! Assyria ♡
