The group strove for authenticity in the traditions they represented. Many of their costumes were authentic; they created others from authentic models. In the early years they used recorded music for their performances; later they added their own orchestra. Although stage performances were the group's primary focus, including performances at Carnegie Hall, it also participated in the 1991 movie Once Around, directed by Lasse Hallström. In 1984 they received a National Endowment for the Arts grant "To add new choreography from North Africa and promote a self-produced home season." (en)
