People of Note - Marc Goldberg

Loading player...
A groundbreaking new ballet featuring Cape Town Ballet and using digital 3-D projections opens at Artscape Opera this week. MOZART AND SALIERI is based on the alleged rivalry between Mozart and the Italian composer Salieri, a story first published by Pushkin and then made famous in Peter Schaffer’s adaptation for film, Amadeus.

Now, the dancer and choreographer MARC GOLDBERG has set this story as a ballet which he himself has designed and choreographed. Apparently it has taken him some 7 years to bring the project to fruition and in People of Note this week, Rodney Trudgeon will be talking to MARC GOLDBERG about this innovative and exciting new production.
