Billyelliott Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 What part would 17 small/ short dancing children be playing in Das Rheingold ? I can't find any reference to children dancing in the pages I've googled !
Picturesinthefirelight Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 Yes, it looks like the Marinsky opera version (which is coming to Birmingham) uses children as Nibelungs.
Billyelliott Posted September 27, 2014 Author Posted September 27, 2014 Sounds fascinating! More research needed on my part ! What kind of a dance do they do I wonder !
akh Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 Yes, it looks like the Marinsky opera version (which is coming to Birmingham) uses children as Nibelungs. Yes they do, last time they came -interesting gold costumes!!!
Billyelliott Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Akh did they dance ? If so what sort of a dance was it ?
akh Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Akh did they dance ? If so what sort of a dance was it ? Not really a dance as such as far as I remember, think they were miming tapping out the gold in the mines. I think they had gold "bovver" boots too.
Billyelliott Posted September 29, 2014 Author Posted September 29, 2014 Thanks everyone - I like the sound of the bovver boots !
