MisterSwig Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 I didn't get it with "Light Rain" as the title. Then I saw that that is the name of the song's composer. The song name "The Sword Dance" helps clarify the dance routine. Ballet is great. I also like the women's gymnastics floor routines. But I have to turn down the volume because the commentators ruin the experience. Then I can't hear the music, and it makes me want to strangle the people in charge.

Boydstun Posted August 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 William, I don't know of a connection to a song. The "Light Rain" ballet premiered in New York in 1981. Here are the other acts of this short ballet. (There is a minute of black screen in the middle, which is just a divide to the next section of it.) Lively joy. https://vimeo.com/79831863 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boydstun Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Some of the ballet excerpts I'd posted here have since become dead links. Such is the one for "Light Rain" that I've left up anyway, as there had been some conversation about it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
