Cumbia Semana, other video & music links

Besides the dances that were officially taught at Oconomowoc, Delores brought one from Florida called "Cumbia Semana" - I found a video of the choreographer teaching it on YouTube - complete with written instructions:

Cumbia Semana - Ira Weisburd

Also found the music on Rhapsody (you might be able to find it on iTunes, too):
Fin de Semana - Fito Olivares

One of the dances that Jay taught was from Iliana Bozhanova - "Snoshti Minah, Kate" is on her CD IBLD #12

Edie mentioned that video of "Zensko Za Raka" is available on the Dunav website

Found video of a couple of the set dances on YouTube:
YouTube - 2009 Seligenstadt dance 5 Culla Bay
YouTube - Picking Up Sticks 

Here's a link to the Ricky Martin music video of Maria:
