Rudolf Nureyev's "Romeo & Juliet"

Rudolf Nureyev created this magnificent staging of Romeo & Juliet especially for English National Ballet in 1977. The Company has since performed it worldwide to critical acclaim. Shakespeare's heartbreaking love story is brought to life by Nureyev's inventive choreography and sumptuous costumes and sets which transport you to Renaissance Verona. From the breathtaking sword-fights of the Capulets and Montagues to the spellbinding romance of Romeo and Juliet's balcony scene, Nureyev's Romeo & Juliet blazes with passion. "Romeo is one of the iconic parts in ballet that you always dream of getting the chance to perform, and we're lucky to have Wayne, our Artistic Director coaching us who was an iconic Romeo of his generation -- we've been watching him and his Juliet on DVD, their connection was so real!" Esteban Berlanga, Soloist

Dan Wheldon on the Diversity of His Career

This video was shot on 10/15/11 just a day before Dan Wheldon died in the IZOD IndyCar World Championships. Dan Wheldon is quite the renaissance man as Pat Mauro pointed out. He's a successful IndyCar driver - having won the Indianapolis 500, did color commentary for Versus, and was the host for "IndyCar Live and Global," which was a chat with IndyCar fans all around the world made possible by Ortsbo, a real-time chat translator that instantly translates text chat in 53 different languages. Contenders for the championship title, Will Power and Dario Franchitti, were also there. In addition, Ortsbo is the sponsor of this very blog, Social Racing Grid. Dan Wheldon, Dario Franchitti, and Will Power at Ortsbo's "IndyCar Live and Global!" Dan Wheldon, Dario Franchitti, and Will Power at Ortsbo's "IndyCar Live and Global!" While all of these side projects are fun, Wheldon admits that what he really wants to do is be a full-time racer in 2012. It's what he's been doing for his entire life, having started racing when he was only six years old. If Wheldon does come back as a full-time IndyCar driver, he may have a leg up on the competition as he's already been testing the new cars for 2012. Wheldon is starting at the back of the grid at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in an effort to win a grand prize of $5 million should he win the race. But he doesn't get to keep all the money. In fact, he has to split it with a lucky fan. Pat Mauro asked Wheldon if he's going to be annoyed to give up ...

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - ELP - Take a Pebble - Live 71 - with great intersections

Просмотр

One of the ELP pieces I like most. One of the best progressive rock bands ever. johnnyprogger1 channel - progrock & art rock band. Listen to ELP and other bands like Genesis, Focus, Pink Floyd, Yes, Renaissance, Rush, Niacin, Queen, Jehtro Tull, Kansas, Gentle Giant, Marillion, Camel, besides Deep Purple, Beatles, Iron Maiden. Take a Pebble (lyrics) Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea, Then watch the ripples that unfold into me, My face spill so gently into your eyes, Disturbing the waters of our lives. Shread of our memories are lying on your grass; Wounded words of laughter are graveyards of the past. Photographs are grey and torn, scattered in your fields Letters of your mem'ries are not real. Sadness on your shoulders like a wornout overcoat In pockets creased and tattered hang the rags of your hope. The daybreak is your midnight; the colours have all died. Disturbing the waters of our lives, of our lives, of our lives, lives, lives, lives... Of our lives.

Budapest part 2 my walk

Просмотр

This city on the Danube is different from the other great capitals of Europe in a pleasant old-fashioned way that fills it with authentic charms. Two thousand years of invasion, liberation, re-occupation, devastation and rebirth, played out over and over again in a cycle of history, have somehow produced this unique culture. Lack of money has prevented that squeaky-clean modernization machine to roll through town, the way it has recently glitzed up so many other cities on the continent. As a result, some buildings are run-down, plaster is peeling and roads are bumpy, but the beautiful reward for the intrepid traveler is a genuine city filled with real character. A wide variety of architectural styles are on display, sometimes combined in the unique Hungarian Eclectic that blends elements of Classical, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau in a single building

Thoughts From Leonardo Da Vinci

Просмотр

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci, April 15, 1452 -- May 2, 1519) was an Italian polymath, having been a scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, botanist, musician and writer. Born as the illegitimate son of a notary, Piero da Vinci, and a peasant woman, Caterina, at Vinci in the region of Florence, Leonardo was educated in the studio of the renowned Florentine painter, Verrocchio. Much of his earlier working life was spent in the service of Ludovico il Moro in Milan. He later worked in Rome, Bologna and Venice, spending his final years in France at the home given to him by King François I. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the "Renaissance man", a man whose seemingly infinite curiosity was equalled only by his powers of invention. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. You are an integral and unique part of the universe. Just as important a part as any other part. There is no one else exactly like you. No one else has your fingerprints, your exact DNA, your exact thoughts or dreams. You are connected to everything and everything you do affects the rest of creation. Try to make the universe a better place.
