2) BalletDoc "indirectly"

Wolfgang Ellenberger has worked at the Ballet of the "Teatro alla Scala" at Milano/Italy as pianist/correpetitor ("maestro collaboratorio di palcoscenico") in 1987 and 1989, enjoying cooperations with stars like Oriella Dorella, Carla Fracci, Luciana Savignano and he has met choreographers like Rudolf Nurejev, Juri Grigorovich.

Later he had hired a primaballerina from the Scala for an event in Würzburg/Germany, Isabel Seabra, but she had to double a colleague at the Scala, so she made her friend Thran Thi Mai from Cannes come to Würzburg. The theme was "Italian evening" and Thran and Ellenberger performed the Italian Concerto of Johann Sebastian Bach with the three movements "Al gusto", "Andante" and "Presto" - the climax was Thran Thi Mai doing the splits on top of the piano!
