Summary

Description
English: Traditional Cambodian Dance at Richmond Folk Festival 2015

Traditional Khmer dance, which suffered greatly along with the Cambodia people from the Khmer Rouge, was preserved by surviving artists who fled to the U.S. Performed by accomplished Cambodian Americans experts in the huge tents of the RFF, it provided a unique experience.

From the group's web page http://www.cambodianheritage.org/

"The state of this highly ornate and stylized art form was seriously threatened in modern times during the rule of the notorious Khmer Rouge regime. From 1975 to 1979, the Khmer Rouge brutalized the Cambodians perished during the period of Khmer Rouge ascendancy. Among the artistic community, it is estimated that 90 percent of the dancers and teachers of the Royal Ballet and students and faculty at the University of Fine Arts perished during this dark period of Cambodian history."
