Comboros Bal Trad
The Comboros traditional ball opens a programme centred on Auvergne dance, concerts and an Aubrac bourree workshop. Dancers and musicians share the same cultural ground: repertoire is learned, played and danced in public. The event has strong identity value because bourree and related folk practices are not treated as museum pieces; they remain social forms, transmitted through bodies, instruments and repeated gatherings.
