Let me be your song...

Ok, I loooove Cantus and the Minstrels, but I only know the name of Cantus! If anyone could provide me with their names I'd be most appriciative!

Thanks!

Murray, he's the cool hip one that's always right behind Cantus
Brio, I think he's the one that looks like a lion
Balsam, I believe he's (or she's) the other Fraggle
Brool, I think he's the one that looks like an aardvark

Sorry G-Man but you are a bit wrong. Murry is right but the rest is wrong.

Brio the one I operated was behing Murry and she was the only Fraggle there. Brio also wore glasses.

Brool was the big one with the bass that looked to you like a lion.

Balsam was the one that looks like an aardvark.

Sorry I just couldn't let this one go.

Take care all,

Terry Angus

Deja vu. :smirk:

I had no idea Brio was a female.

P.S.: Brio rocks.

Nor I.

One other thing- we know Tim Gosley played Brool, Jim was Cantus, Steve was Murray, and Terry here was Brio- but who played Balsam? The last time I remember hearing "Music Makes Us Real (Ping!)" I thought I heard Jerry Nelson, but I'm probably wrong.

It's not even listed on the old Henson.com website.

Brio is female? Wow...wait till Effy sees this, and all the Fraggle-Rock fan-fiction writers. May need some re-writes, I think.

Neither did I, but now that I think about it it's kinda-sorta obvious. I mean, if you listen to Music Makes Us Real (Ping)!, Brio's voice sounds very similar to the Storyteller's. And the Storyteller was also female.
