About the Dance and MusicBackground

Tajdeed, Margo's first performance video, is a collection of live performances.

Enjoy Margo’s passion, versatility, and technical expertise as she takes you from the subtle sophistication of raks sharki (belly dance) and the exuberance of drum solos to the mystery of improvised interpretation. Tajdeed is a dance video that is entertaining, artistic, and memorable.

"......elegant, refined, graceful, highly polished...Margo dances flawlessly."
Nikki Brown, editor, Raqs Sharqi e-zine, U.K.

"Throughout the video, Margo is an elegant, charismatic performer. In the Oriental sections, she demonstrates precision technique including complex layering. The fusion segments allow her to explore artistic directions outside the Oriental framework, which she does with fire and passion...Margo is an elegant dancer who performs Egyptian-style Oriental with her own flair. Her technique is sharp and precise, perfectly joined to the music, and her artistic interpretation captures the joy she finds in dancing. This enjoyable video showcases both her skill with the Oriental style and her creative interpretation of more introspective themes".
Julie Elliott, creator and editor, shira.net
