Tamburitzans

The Duquesne University Tamburitzans are the longest-running multicultural song and dance company in the United States. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the company's members are Duquesne University students who receive scholarships for their activities.

The Tamburitzans began in 1937. They tour nationally, performing music and dance mainly from Eastern Europe and its neighboring folk cultures. The Tamburitzans are affectionately known as "the Tammies" in some circles.
