In August 2019, I was lucky enough to go on holiday to Greenland. We stopped at the tiny town of Nanortalik for a few hours and attended a performance by the local choir singing hymns in Greenlandic at their lovely little wooden church. A memorable moment.

Di Henderson singing at the 9th Portsoy Haal in June 2018. I don't know the actual name of this song but she's singing about a chap who was a bit of rogue all the way through it so that's what I've called it. If anyone knows the proper name, please enlighten me! More info about Di here: dihendersonmusic.com where you can also buy her very excellent CD.

Thank you so much for this demonstration!
Glad it was helpful. 😊
вот бы отреставрировали фильм и перевели на русский ради звезды Хиггинса
Люблю Хиггинса, а тут и героиня красавица
I love yours song
What a pitty, the sound is so bad 💔😔
Best I could do with geriatric technology. 🤷🏻♀️
@@the-fiddling-fox Never mind. Still nice, you shared it 🙂
A ballet has stayed with me since seeing it all those years ago. Definitely a desert island ballet. The choreography is just superb, never bettered. It really is one the finest ballets ever produced and a superb legacy for a truly amazing choreographer.
Thank you!!! I got an old 20+ year old violin and I feel like there's a smell like mold coming from inside of it, even though I can't see any, so I'm going to try this))
My one was really stinky! Smelled of rice after. 🙂
Thanks for posting. I did some work promotional work for Rambert and also worked at Sadler's Wells while this was in the repertoire, and saw it several times, never without being moved.
My absolute favorite ballet. Such a pity it's never been available on DVD. Thanks for this upload. Bruce has never bettered it.
It is available on DVD and I have it. Houston Ballet.
Formidable Elsa! Wonderfully performed ❤️
One of my favourite Contemporary Dance pieces, for me it is Christopher Bruce's best work.
But beware of "sushi rice" -- leaves behind a copious layer of white dust.
Noted. Mine was basmati.No apparent problems with that.
Don't use cooked rice....LOL
Apparently someone did lol.
Best video ever - this song hits me in the soul
I love this! I saw it on TV but was also lucky enough to see it at Nottingham many years ago.
I remember a series on Dance on BBC2 back in the 90's. There was also Billboards. I was lucky to see both Ghost Dance and Billboards, the latter in 1996, at the Festival Theatre in Edinburgh.
That was possibly when I made this recording! I saw Rambert perform this live way back then, also at the Festival Theatre and then again a couple of years ago in Inverness.
@@the-fiddling-fox I thought I understood the story of Ghost Dance, then I saw a documentary on You Tube with the choreographer and realised I was way off :(.
You lot should have seen the original Rambert production with Michael Ho,Namron,and Robert North as the ghosts.
😍💙💜💚💜💙👍
I’m not a fan of traditional ballet but this is one performance that I would have loved to have seen, nicely presented and beautifully performed
Greenlandic choir is a blessing to my ears .it relaxing and it give peace to 😊
My Dad recorded the Houston Ballets version on videotape when I was younger , and I watched over and over again. I fell in love with this beautiful choreography by Christopher Bruce. So great to see Rambert version. Thank you so much for posting. 😁
The first reel after the air and waltz is "the Sandyburn Reel" by Frank Jamieson from Shetland.
It is my favourite dance, I took the family to see it for my 50th birthday and it was unforgettable. Thank you for posting the full dance.
Glad you enjoyed it. It’s one of my favourites. 🙂
Just an FYI: The music was recorded by the Mercury Ensemble - the 'orchestra' used by the Ballet Rambert. Christopher Bruce says in the interview before the Houston recording that the music came from Inti-Illimani, and on the Rambert website it says it was composed by Ernesto Cavour, Atahualpa Yupanqui (previously known as Héctor Roberto Chavero Aramburu). They were definitely recorded and released as I have seen an audio cassette of the Ghost Dances by the Mercury Ensemble ("courtesy of Inti-Illimani") on an italian blog though I can't find this edition anywhere... However, there are recordings available: 'Incantation' with the Sargeant Early Band is a CD available on ebay for example that apparently includes the music used by Ballet Rambert for both Sargeant Early's Band and Ghost Dances. Hope this is of use.
Thanks for the info! 🙂
I bought the cassette of the music which was on sale either at the interval or on the way out in the season when it was first performed at Sadler's Wells. I still have it somewhere. The music and choreography have lived with me ever since that performance. You could have heard a pin drop during the silent moments of the dance sequences of the skeletal figures . As with Les Noces, where Nijinska and Stravinsky come together and are inseparable, so it is with Gost Dances. Now has anybody got a complete version of LCDT's The Waterless Method of Swimming Instruction?
Thanks Fiddling Fox. Saw this a few years ago at Sadlers Wells and thought I'd be able to buy the CD and DVD - they had neither available. Was so disappointed when I looked and couldn't find anything online at the time... glad I was inspired to look again today.
I’m glad I was able to convert it from the ageing videotape before it rotted away! It was on TV in the late 90s, I think.
An amazing choreographer Bruce ! I saw it live in Greece I don't know how many years ago. I still remember the emotions it created A theatre standing up !!!...and is still, after so many years, fresh, spontaneous, moving, bitter sweet, lyrical and powerful, inventive and surprizing, with such a great flow, use of space, superb duos, solos, group moments, I wish I could have had the chance in my life to learn some of these phrases! This is dance in its best ...Thank you Christopher Bruce and amazing dancers of Rambert company.
Thank you. I love this dance. I saw it live in Utah. It’s so haunting and beautiful.
Beautifully conceived and inspring to watch. The song Dolencias is one of my top favs ever but I have never been able to find the first version I ever heard, which was solo pan pipes. I will keep searching, like the dancers.
This is one of my favourite dances. I watched it live in London with my mum on her birthday and loved it. She says watching this choreography as a child is what made her want to be a pro dancer!❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it! I’ve always loved it. I saw Rambert performing it a few times in the 90s, probably around the time of this recording.
Does anyone know what happened to one of the extras on this film... Yasmin Evans? She lived at the village grocery in Seatown (St) in nearby Cullen. I noticed that someone using the name Juditham, also from a nearby village, left a review of the film on the IMDB website and wondered if she might have known Yasmin. I'm looking to trace a lost relative. Probably best not to post my contact details here, but if you can help then you can track me down via FB or LinkedIn. Thanks a lot, Frank Swallow.
Hi Frank, it was me who posted the review on IMDb. I’m afraid the name doesn’t mean anything to me but you’re best bet is to join the Cullen Past and Present fb page. Someone there might remember her.
@@the-fiddling-fox Thanks a lot. I'll do that. I've since found out that she was married at the time, so her name would have been Yasmin Moar, not Evans.
Thank you for uploading this, I've been looking through Anthony Higgins's roles on the IMDB and saw this.
A wonderful experience. Touched my heart. ❤️
Stella Gonet ❤️
Very nice and easy technique. Thanks for showing.
Music is by Incantation from an album called Cacharpaya: Panpipes of the Andes. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be available for download anywhere which is a shame as I've always liked it.
Perhaps you could check out the music of the Chilean group "Inti Illimani", which is on RUclips. I believe that their music may have been used for the original ballet.
@John Gillette Thanks. I’ll check it out.
@@johnggillette Incantation performed it live at each performance. Somewhere I still have the cassette I bought on the way out of the old Sadler's Wells.
@@Gwailo54 Good for you,chum.l operated the lighting when you saw it.
@@ripdbtpoo1441 well there's a thing - I operated the lighting for the performance this video is from! Small world.
a talented lady who is the old man on the keyboards
Tay Man That would be her husband. 😉
That's her wonderful husband Gary!
Will it affect the position of the sound pose?
How Yuen Wong I had no problem. It’s only a small amount of rice and gentle shaking.
@@the-fiddling-fox thank you! Have a great day ahead!
I watched them perform this live @ Woodford Folk Festival last night (NYE 2019/20)& it was sensational! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience <3
Well done, looks good to me and I like the recycling, cheers.
Bert Fullerton Thank you! I love upcycling stuff. I’ve no idea why making this came into my head but I like the end result. 😃
Austria - you can google the website of the world bodypainting festival to get the details. It's an annual event.
absoloutely fantastic work on the body painting! ...and Paula looks beautiful, as usual ;)
My body circus bit is in Part 1 of this video :-)
Hi great to see another video, I thought there would have been more. I am makeing a 20 minute documentary on one of the artists, which I have yet to edit down from 10 hours of footage, I have already posted a small 3 minute video from the body circus evening.
Yeah you're in here and there aren't you, LOL!
