“Anadolu Ate?i will perform the Troy legend in Baku on March 16 to 18. The 8-meter high wooden horse will be brought to the scene during the show.

The dancing group under auspices of Mustafa Erdoghan performs to the world the fire of ancient love, cultural history and peace mosaic. «Anatolian Fire» considering one of the best dancing groups in the world due to their numerous international tours, has taken tremendous steps to achieve this purpose.

The concept of a large dance group performing Anatolian dances mixed with modern dance and ballet was a long desired dream of Mustafa Erdo?an, who conducted folk dance studies at Bilkent University. In 1999 he established the foundations of the group then called Sultans of the Dance.

The group had its first performances in 2001 and started a world tour a year later, already under the name Fire of Anatolia. The number of dancers now reaches 120, which means that the group is able to perform the same show in two or three different locations at the same time. According to Erdo?an, Fire of Anatolia is currently among the three largest dance groups in the world. The dance group has performed so far in more than 40 countries, including the USA, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Russia, Qatar, China, Japan, Kazakhstan, France, Egypt just in front of the Pyramids and The Netherlands.
