Maurice Bejart

Maurice Béjart, the genius of modern ballet, left us yesterday. In very few occasions has art aroused in me such emotions and feelings as when I saw a few years ago his production Le Presbytère, with music composed by Freddy Mercury and Queen and costumes designed by Gianni Versace. Being much more than an aesthetic experience, the sheer beauty of what developed in front of me, on the stage, got me nearly in tears.
