Abstract
This fieldwork-based ethnochoreological study focuses on traditional dances of Hungarian Romani/Gypsy communities in Transylvania (Romania) practiced to electronic pop-folk music. This kind of musical accompaniment is applied not only to the fashionable Romanian manele, but also to their traditional dances (named csingerálás<sup>1</sup>, cigányos.) Thus Romanian electronic pop-folk music including Romani/Gypsy elements provides the possibility for the survival of Transylvanian Hungarian Romani/Gypsy dance tradition both at community events and public discoes. The continuity in dance idiom is maintained through changes in musical idiom — a remarkable phenomenon, worthy of further discussion from the point of view of the continuity of cultural tradition.
