您想看殺人鯨之舞嗎?
那麼您一定要到華盛頓州的西雅圖走一趟,參加它的西北民俗祭,觀賞好望角狐舞者(Cape
Fox Dancer)的舞蹈表演。
好望角狐舞者是特領吉族印地安(Tlingit
Indian)部落的成員。這個舞團是由60位強壯的成員所組成,他們會擊鼓、吟唱及跳舞。傳統的表演包括殺人鯨之舞及歡迎酋長舞。好望角狐舞者會身穿鮮豔、有穗的毛毯製衣物,頭戴附有貂皮(小型鼬鼠)尾的毛帽,並戴上雕刻成烏鴉、老鷹、熊及狼的木製面具。
西北民俗祭在國殤日的那個星期舉辦,它是國內的大型盛會之一,節慶內容著重民俗、種族及傳統藝術。這個一年一度的慶典旨在提升該區的猶太人、美國原住民、非裔美人、玻里尼西亞人、菲律賓籍美國人、墨西哥裔美國人及墨西哥社群的文化及傳統。
Would you like to see the Dance of the Killer Whales?
Then come see the Cape Fox Dancers perform at the Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle, Washington.
The Cape Fox Dancers are members of the Tlingit Indian tribes. Sixty members strong, they drum, chant and dance.

The Cape Fox Dancers wear colorful fringed blankets, white fur caps with ermine (a small weasel) tails, and wooden masks of ravens, eagles, bears, and wolves.
