Coverage of the 1999 CDI-W Amsterdam Dressage
Kur to Music A Night to Remember

RAI CenterThe organizers of Jumping Amsterdam chose to program the dressage Kur to Music in the evening hoping to attract a sell out crowd. By 8 p.m. the greenhouse-like looking indoor arena was packed to 98 percent. The success of the Kur to Music has revitalized the sport of Dressage making it a spectator favorite. Euro Sport's Peter Churchill pointed out during his presentation the same week at the International Event Organizers Congress that the Kur has become a 'television programmer's dream'.

The dramatic score of Ulla Salzgeber's Kur easily made the German rider stand out following several rides with musical scores that were less than exciting. Salzgeber simply shocked with the lovely soundtrack on which her young Russian beauty danced. Even though her horse Wall Street lost strength and impulsion from behind at the end of his performance, still left an impression. "Her seat is so strong and correct" commented one upper level judge watching from the stands. The combination ended up fourth, earning a score of 74.06%.
