Rapturous dance sequence from the seldom seen THE BACCHANTES (Le Baccanti) starring Pierre Brice as the god Dionysus.
There are other dance sequences but this one is the big one.
What a fantastic score by Mario Nascimbene.
Choreography by Herbert Ross!
Here's a clip of the first major dance:

It always sounded like the corus was singing "Heave away, heave away!"

The score from this movie has haunted me since I last saw it in the mid '60s. This is the first I've seen at all of it. If you could post the rest of it, I for one, would appreciate it.
