Traditionally, the ESDU World Dance Masters 2010 will be held in Poreč (Croatia).
The City of Poreč showed itself as a perfect host for this show, with its location, surroundings and a unique ability to unite all the needs of the competitors in one area.
This year, we expect an even greater number of participants from all around the world, whose presence will turn Poreč into a real "dance paradise" for 5 days.

Banquet of the Spirits features the tight new quartet led by maestro Cyro Baptista - the fabulous percussionist who has performed with everyone from Herbie Hancock and Yo-Yo Ma to Laurie Anderson, Paul Simon and Medeski, Martin and Wood. Cyro's endless sonic curiosity and intense rhythmic drive has never been stronger in these fabulous and imaginative original songs. Featuring three of the best young musicians out of the downtown scene and some very special guests, the music jumps from a whisper to a scream and never misses a beat. Delightful music from one of the world's greatest and most adventurous Brazilian musicians.

It is a chance to try your hand at this old skill of the sea, cellar and kitchen, stand by the competitors who in marked tin containers arrange salted pilchard, using their knowledge handed down from generation to generation... Children, locals, visitors, beginners and experts: they will all learn or say something about the needed amount of fish, salt, oil, spices... And after three months the tin containers will be opened and the best salted pilchard will be announced. A special occasion for tasting and a chance to talk about the choice of perfect wine for such festive occasions… In any case, the fish must be salted properly! And to know that, school is needed.
