Facade: Popular song
Loading...
Uploaded by quillerpen on Jul 12, 2008
I think I've uploaded all my skating treasures, so now moving on to some of my favourite ballet clips. Here is the 'Popular song' from Ashton's Facade, performed here by Michael Colemen and (I think) Stephen Beagley. There is a skating connection because John Curry danced the same piece with Anthony Dowell at at charity gala in 1977

Thank you so much for posting this!!! It is a gem!! Any chance you could post the Tango???
As for the person asking, this is the Royal Ballet. BRB did not exist then, it was at the time Sadler's Wells Royal Ballet, not BRB. That happened in 1990 or 91...
Also, thanks for Rhapsody pas de deux... god, how I miss seeing Ashton well danced!!!

That's tears of laughter, I hope?
This was recorded at a gala in (I thnk) Birmingham sometime in the 1980s.
Thanks for confirming about Beagley - I would have hated to have got that wrong.
