--- End quote ---

Did Copeland do a Western opera? Only thing I'm familiar with is Billy the Kid, which is a ballet.

I'm still looking for a full-scale ballet. Not just a couple of dancers costumed as cowboys dancing to the "The Wings," but a full-scale telling of the story in ballet.

A ballet interpretation of TS1 and TS2 would be hawt. ...  ;D

Artiste:
Will that ballet sex scene be with or without clothes ??

Artiste:
Some operas have been with no clothes ?
