A New Spin on Spin: Reviving a Bolognese Folk Dance
  + stars: | 2023-07-21 | by ( Brian Seibert | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Two men arrive on the dance floor, holding hands. This is the polka chinata, or crouched polka, a nearly defunct Bolognese folk dance. He had made other works using folk dance, but he had never heard of an Italian couple dance for men. He sought out Giancarlo Stagni, a dance teacher in Castel San Pietro Terme, near Bologna. Stagni told him that the number of people who danced the polka chinata had shrunk to just five.
