Carousel Hornpipe Ballet - Original Broadway Cast, with orchestra added 

This is incredibly important footage! It shows the absolute genius of Agnes DeMille - a true groundbreaker - a visionary. Thank you for putting the orchestral accompaniment underneath it so skillfully - and painstakingly.

Our room host did an OUTSTANDING JOB of adding music! The music audio is excellent.

Jesus, Mark -- this takes my breath away.

very well done!

Excellent

great job...

Fabulous…. My favorite musical of all time…. A treasure….

Thanks for posting what is really historical footage. The Hornpipe is not just a dance, it is part of the narrative of the play- that is what Agnes de Mille and her dance arranger Trude Rittmann achieved.

Very impressive, I was blown away, high and low :)

WOW!! FANTASTIC JOB!!

Fantastic! Thank you so much for these Gems. They are really appreciated.

Extraordinary! Where does the footage come from? Who shot this film of the dance? Yeah, Agnes de Mille!

Wow!

Thank you for posting this wonderful hitherto fore not generally known interlude/prequel to "Blow High, Blow Low"! Your work adding the orchestral music is greatly appreciated!

INCREDIBLE find. I wish they had done the Carousel Waltz......

Fantastic clips- I’m sure Carousel is the favorite show of many people- it’s certainly mine. I was happy with the piano accompaniments you posted originally, but the dances with the full orchestra are even more vibrant. I’d be excited to see the “June” dance, but my question is- do you have any footage of the “Carousel Waltz”? I’d love to see the original staging of that opening!

Where in the show is this dance?

An era with the greatest music and talent ……… today at best we have cheep garishness and brass bands instead of an orchestra .

In 1984 I directed a production of "Carousel" and wanted to include Billy and Jigger in "The Hornpipe's" narrative. The Choreographer refused....so I fired her....glad I did!
