In this beautiful video, one dashing pair takes to the stage to perform a traditional Irish tap dance, known as a Riverdance. 

Accompanied by an incredible group of drum players, this performance, which was filmed in 2009, is a must-see for all:

The group of dancers waited patiently backstage. The crowd begins cheering as the golden lights shine out. As the music begins, two of their best dancers begin flying across the stage. They don't miss a beat.

At first, it seems like they are performing a classic Irish dance. Their bodies move effortlessly to the music of their ancestors.

That's when it happens.

Suddenly, a couple of drummers walk onto the stage. They're pounding their drums with tribal beats. The mood of the room instantly changes. You can feel the anticipation. As the drum beats sound, the dancers separate. Then the male dancer and drummers begin a duel of rhythm.

The male Irish dancer begins moving his feet so fast that you can barely see them. It's as if he's floating! Then without warning, a dozen dancers glide onto the stage! They're bodies dance in unison to the same beat as the drums. Their feet pound the stage in powerful echoes.

The dancers grasp hands as they continue their river dance. They're so tight with their moves. It's as if they're Irish angels sent down from heaven to grace this stage. The last few moves blow the audience's minds! Their talent is overwhelming.

In the end, the dancers stood tall and proud. The crowd cheered loudly as the dancers smiled.
