Eostiged Ar Stangala.

Festival de Cornouaille. Quimper.

Le cercle de danse le plus célèbre de Bretagne créé à Quimper en 1948 et qui a effectué des tournées en Amérique du nord (U.S.A., Canada et Mexique), en Asie (Inde et Corée du Sud) et bien sûr à travers toute l’Europe.
Le cercle est membre fondateur de Kendalc'h (*), dont il a gagné à treize reprises le championnat de danse, ce qui en fait l'ensemble le plus titré de Bretagne.
(*) Kendalc'h (en breton, littéralement « maintien » ou continuité), est une confédération de cercles celtiques constituée fin 1950 à Quimper. Kendalc'h promeut la culture bretonne par le biais des arts populaires, basés sur huit champs d'action : la danse, le costume, la scène, la rue, la jeunesse, la formation, la musique et l'édition. Elle compte aujourd'hui 180 associations bretonnes (dont 30 hors de Bretagne), qui œuvrent dans les domaines de la danse bretonne et du chant choral en langue bretonne. (Wikipédia).

The most famous dancer’s group of Brittany created in Quimper in 1948 and which has already toured in North America (U.S.A ., Canada and Mexico), in Asia (India and South Korea) and of course through all Europe.
The group (we call a breton group «cercle celtique» in french. Approx. «Celtic Circle») is the member founder of Kendalc' h (*), and won at thirteen occasions the championship of this dance confederatrion, what makes it the most titled of whole Brittany.

(*) Kendalc' h (in Breton, literally "preservation" or «continuity»), is a confederacy of «Celtic circles» constituted at the end of 1950 in Quimper. Kendalc'h promotes the Breton culture by means of the popular arts, based on eight radiuses of action: the dance, the costume, the stage, the street, the youth, the training, the music and the publishing. They are 180 Breton associations today (among which 30 outside Brittany. (From Wikipedia).
