The Flower Tossing Dance

This dance is a popular repertoire, particularly for
state and religious ceremonies. It is a dance which,
in theme, asks for an event or the Cambodian people
to be blessed with good fortune.

It is also popular with American audiences, as the
dancers ceremoniously toss flower petals from the goblets
they hold, always bringing applause from the audience.
