Does anyone have a tape of Pina Baush's Rite of Spring ?

[rg]

bausch's 'rite' was shown on A&E network a while back.
i know of know of no commercial release of the tape either here or in europe, tho' perhaps w/ dvd there is something in euro-format now.

Thanks for the info rg...
Did you record it ?
Or would anyone have a copy ?

[rg]

i HAD a beta copy of a friend's beta copy, which came off the air to his beta machine years back, but haven't seen my copy in a while. (my friend has since died, alas)
haven't had cause to look for/at my copy lately.
but some of the betas i've looked at from a similar period have begun to go 'funny'
it's just poss.that the recent paris perfs. of the work were filmed, but i'm not sure.

That would be awesome...
I saw POB perform the work about 3 years ago...
Absolutely phenomenal...
