SALIERI

[TheLindsayKempCo]

Its about the madness of Salieri... jealous of Mozart's creativity... so he wishes he could of written the requiem and is haunted by the melodies... So it is about Salieri NOT Mozart...

[MrVibraphone]

Amazing!!!!

[sergeyyak]

ugly!

[KATEMERANDA123]

yes but he is playing salieri! He is brilliant!

[85xAntonello]

BELLO!

[pepeal53]

bravo. Bellisimas imagenes

[chico00566]

Certamente é Mozart e o video com Lindsay faz uma referencia ao filme

[x0big0x]

wow!

[tomhulcelover]

woah dats creepy.........

[Armindusky]

Hola? xD

[michaeld5]

Definitely starts out with Mozart's Requiem.

[zscottk]

i think this is supposed to be something like the movie "amadeus" by peter shaffer?

[Shaster19]

This is REALLY weird.

[DemonicCollusion]

Isn't this Mozart?

Wait... 2:28

[NatashaNabokov]

I'm confused.

[vattacukor90]

so fantastic....(i understood)

[ArturoMortis]

Salieri's Europa Reconosciuta

[DrunkenLuffy]

lol, u guys don't seem to read about music much, salieri and mozart worked together in various duets.

[VemiJ]

its from mozart!

[kumpeltyp1]

-.- this piece is from mozart and not from salieri

[ZektoNNL]

true he made it afther his father died

[ontcanman]

It's sad to see the memory of a great man maligned by perfomances such as this. I'm not critizing the performance, it is presented very nicely, I just don't like the material. It's unfair to make a mockery of the life of the man. Salieri was a great composer.

[alou64]

i agree

[ELECTROCOCHITO]

aguebo pendejo solo que como Milos Forman acabaron con una reputacion de un gran maestro como salieri... tanto como mozart...

asi como para muchos acabaron la vida de lenon.. bueno es un decier no quise comparar...

[seddikus]

it's not from salieri this one is a part of the Mozart requiem !

[seddikus]

sorry, I did'nt hear what follows, the truth is that salieri had nothing with the death of mozart it's a bullshit.

[m2sbsahib]

Yup, that's requiem alright.

Salieri didn't kill Mozart, he didn't write the ditty we heard in this skit and was well liked by most everyone, including Beethoven. His music lacked the majesty of Mozart, Beethoven and Bach, and so what. He was wildly popular at his peak, much more so than Mozart and expecially Bach, and he envied no one.

Most people who trash him haven't heard his music. It lacks the structure of Mozart but has some amazingly brilliant moments woven in here and there. He caught the spirit of his times.

[scumbucket1019]

To add to your comment: look at the Damrau video of Salieri's Europa Reconosciuta-- Salieri was an amazing composer, with few equals (or betters) then or since. He was viciously defamed after his death due to Pushkin's story (the basis for "Amadeus") which was just too good a tale to ever be contradicted with facts.

fantastik

[kermit9978]

What year is this video? Its great, by the way...

[angeldelduendecillo]

This was filmed at the Peacock Theatre on 9th Feb 2002

[TheLindsayKempCo]

@kermit9978 it was recorded at Peacock Theatre London in Feb 2002.

[JasnoGT]

Salieri realizes that he's inferior to Mozart and he is pissed!!! I can empathize. "Why did God give me the Ear..but not the talent"

[foxolita]

this is brilliant.i had tears running down my face, as i felt salieri's madness, then, he remembers his welcoming tune for mozart, he brought me out of the sadness. 1-you have to be educated enough to understand the story, 2- you must go through a little madness yourself and 3-in these times, more people are not going to understand because there parents didn't understand, i love you all, we are all one by being human beings, we will always have that.

[TheLindsayKempCo]

@foxolita Thank you :-)

[angeldelduendecillo]

Utter Madness, he as Salieri is haunted by the genuis of Mozart!Lindsay originally did this at a gala in Italy it was one of the last ones Rudi performed at.

[TheLindsayKempCo]

@angeldelduendecillo You so get it!!!

[joWlovesballet]

I've just watched this several times and don't understand what emotion he is trying to portray .  . :/

[TheLindsayKempCo]

@joWlovesballet - Madness being Haunted!

[angeldelduendecillo]

With Lindsay you either love him or hate him there is no middle ground.What he does is Pure Theatre going back to the time of Comedia del arte. Not your normal dance. He has been creating for over 50 years. I am sorry you dont like it, there are many who do. David Bowie is only the performer he is as he worked with Lindsay in the 60s. Kate Bush too. Dance is about moving the soul. it about your own passion. It takes all styles.

[joWlovesballet]

I am a dancer that admires and appreciates contemporary work. I didn't think I would like this but I gave it a try and watched it several times anyway . . . I was right . . . I hated it.
