### Eurythmy Performance

*Program for the Educational Eurythmy Performances, March 27 and 28, 1923*

*During the educational conference, there were two eurythmy performances by the Waldorf students, on March 27 at 11 a.m. and on March 28 at 5 p.m. The program for these performances is not available, but Ernst Blümel reports on them in his “Impressions of the Artistic-Pedagogical Conference of the Free Waldorf School in Stuttgart”: "The lively freshness of the little ones, their enthusiastic love for the subject, struck one with such elemental force that any skepticism was silenced. Whether it was cheerful songs and poems, such as Christian Morgenstern's “Ries' im Walde, der Lattenzaun, ein nervöser Mensch etc.” or serious pieces such as Mörike's “Feuerreiter” (Fire Rider) and Wagner's ‘Nornenszene’ (Scene of the Norns) from Götterdämmerung, the children were always wholeheartedly involved and conveyed to the audience the feeling of the awakening and will-firing power of the eurhythmic movements."
