Answer:

B orchestra

Explanation:

<u><em>Orchestra </em></u>comes from an ancient Greek term that literally meant <em><u>dancing space </u></em><u>or </u><em><u>dancing floor</u></em>. In ancient times, it was <u>circular </u>and stated between the seated area of the theatre (<em>theatron</em>) and the building behind the stage (<em>skene</em>). <u>Orchestra was reserved for the chorus of the play </u>–<u> they would dance, sing and recite poetry in this place, sometimes interacting with the viewers</u>. In the earliest times, it was made out of mud, with no structural distinction, but afterward, it was designed as a <u>white marble curb in the shape of a full circle. </u>

The first <em>orchestra </em>terrace was probably in the famous Theatre of Dionysus at the slopes of Acropolis. Excavations of the site show that <em>orchestra </em>here was also circular at first, but was later reshaped at the theatre space changed its purpose.

MaRussiya [10]

I believe the correct answer is: Iscathamiya.

 

Iscathamiya meaning "to walk like a cat" is a derivative of the mbube vocal style developed by singing group Ladysmith Black Mambazo. The term is derived from the Zulu verb “cathama” which means walking softly. The isicathamiya choirs are traditionally all male choirs.
