In Turkish history, Halay already comes from Tengrism, it has only one other name, Ohuokhai, but it is more of a divine honor but over the years it has become a folk dance and the term Halay comes from Alay, which means assembly
This is great, thank you for providing historic background. So, this dance has nothing in common with ancient Anatolian peoples like Hittites or Luwians?
Hello, we greet you from the country of Peru. RAFAEL RUIZ DIAZ, DIRECTOR OF SOLNAKANU-CHEPEN-PERU. CONGRATULATIONS FOR THE GOOD ARTISTIC WORK. GREETINGS.
This troupe is from Turkey.....I doubt they will be back until the festival next year.....make sure you check out the Chicago Turkish Festival website or FB page for next year's dates....it's a very special opportunity to see the real deal -- very high quality musicians and dancing from Turkey.
This dance is from the Gaziantep region, which is majority Turkish, and most of the music presented in this video is Turkish. However, a small portion of the music included are Kurdish, so you are partially right. For example, in 2:20 the music is from the folk song “Karpuz Getir Yiyelim,” which is from the Diyarbakır region and is originally Kurdish (I don’t know its original name). I also want to point out that you are exemplifying ignorance by directly claiming this dance and music is completely Kurdish, without making specific research. You can’t and shouldn’t do that, just because the choreography, instruments, and the melody seem and sound the same or similar.
Is anyone here jealous? so jealous that they can only point their finger at the Turks. They lack attention and want to get attention with this. So sad.

How can you be so sure about that? These types of dances are found in all over the Fertile Crescent and doesn’t originate from the Kurdish culture. In fact, Kurds are a very very very new ethnicity. Plus, the dance is from a majority Turkish city.
