The Sound of Music!



More than 200 dancers were performing their version of "Do Re Mi", in the Central Station of Antwerp. with just 2 rehearsals they created this amazing stunt! Those 4 fantastic minutes started the 23 of march 2009, 08:00 AM. It is a promotion stunt for a Belgian television program, where they are looking for someone to play the leading role, in the musical of "The Sound of Music".

My nephew-in-law, James Tjiunardi, sent me the above u-tube in the email. Wow! The Sound of Music is my favourite. As a teacher in River Valley High and Anglo Chinese School (Independent) I had shown my students the movie after their final examinations. It was very tempting for me to just concentrate on my marking instead of taking time to show the movie. But I enjoyed the movie so much and wanted the whole world to watch it. I had watched the Sound of Music about 77 times!

How spontaneous! How I wish the group had performed this lovely dance when I was in Antwerp a couple of years ago.

I wish the directors and all the people concerned all the best in their production of this all time favourite!

If any of my readers have not yet watched the Sound of Music, please do watch it! An excellent musical production of a true story of the Von Trapp Family Singers.
