I've been doing a little research on the Sigurd The Dragon Slayer legend for a draft of an urban fantasy novel retelling the story, and turned up some information on a Faroese ballad-cycle based on the legend. Here's a clip of a chain dance being performed to the first ballad in the cycle, "Regin Smidur" (Regin The Smith), named after a character from the story. What's really interesting is that this telling of the legend is significantly different from the one I know. "Regin Smidur" Faroese chain dance
