1980 Sabine Baesz - Tassillo Thierback Olympic LP

[nondescriptnyc]

Thanks so much for posting! I was so hugely dissapointed for them in 1980 because they had done so well in the preceding season--all the way through the pre-Olympics competition in Lake Placid right before the Olymics! I am so glad that they had their success later on.

Anyhow, does anyone know the music they are skating to? Dick appears to be saying at 1:06, "Rhythmiture Overture," but "rhythmiture" is not really a word!

@nondescriptnyc I think if you investigate a little bit, you will find it is actually Candide Overture by Lennard Bernstein.......skip to the end of the overture, maybe about 80@ of the way, and you will find at least this first section!!!! best wishes

THANK YOU , THANK YOU..THANK YOU!!!...my best memories of skating , when i was a skater I loved these german (both; east and west germany skaters) their routines were revolutionary, and state of art technique....

At the 1980 Worlds, they landed the first to my knowledge throw triple toe loop with this long program.
