In Madagascar, these dances precede official speeches, accompany popular celebrations, and sometimes serve as a language of identity. Antsosy, tsapiky, and salegy are now among the most iconic choreographic expressions in the country. Although they gained prominence on modern stages starting in the 1970s, as highlighted by several Malagasy ethnomusicologists, these traditional rhythms remain deeply rooted in the cultural fabric of the island.
