范代利亚(Vandalia)集会
地方性遗产
您会扁足舞吗？
扁足舞是一种常规舞蹈，跳扁足舞时，舞者在做一些非常花俏的动作时，脚必须尽量保持扁平。扁足舞有许多不同的类型，而访客可以在每个阵亡将士纪念日(Memorial
Day)的周末，在查理斯敦的范代利亚集会上看到这些不同类型的扁足舞。最精彩的部分是户外的扁足舞舞台活动，观众也常被邀请共舞，即席学跳扁足舞。
自1976年开始，范代利亚集会聚集了来自各个小社区及各别流域的舞者、音乐家、说书人及工匠，他们都前来此处一展他们的长才。
其中一个表演者是马文维(Melvin
Wine)，他是小提琴手及1981年的首届范代利亚奬的得主
。这个奬是西维吉尼亚州的最高民间荣誉。他出生于1909年的布莱克斯敦郡(Braxton
County)，他的怀旧提琴旋律多学自他的舅公及父亲，而他们的小提琴则是学自维的袓父。
假如您想要跳个小舞、听点轻音乐或听个故事，您绝不能错过范代利亚集会。
Can you flat-foot?
Flat-footing is a traditional dance in which dancers' feet are kept flat as they make some very fancy moves. There are many styles of flat-foot dance, and visitors can see some of them at the Vandalia Gathering in Charleston, West Virginia, every Memorial Day weekend. The outdoor flat-footing stage is a highlight, and spectators are encouraged to jump in and kick up their heels.
Since 1976, the Vandalia Gathering has brought together dancers, musicians, storytellers, and craftspeople from small communities and isolated valleys to showcase their talents.
One of these performers is Melvin Wine, a fiddler and recipient in 1981 of the first Vandalia Award, West Virginia's highest folklore honor. He was born in 1909 in Braxton County, West Virginia. He learned many of his old fiddle tunes from his great-uncle and father, who had learned from his grandfather.
The Vandalia Gathering is the place to be if you want to do a little dance, listen to a little music or hear a good story.
