Maurice Bejart Has Passed Away
It is with great sadness that QNB has received the following news.
Maurice Bejart has passed away early Thursday 22nd Nov 2007 at Lausanne's
University Hospital in Switzerland.
Maurice was a mentor and friend to Martyn through much of his dance career and has been
an inspiration to Martyn and many other dancers.
Brief History
For four decades, Maurice Bejart was an extraordinarily innovative and influential
choreographer and company leader in Europe.
He began his ballet career dancing the 19th century classics in pristine versions
staged from the choreography notebooks of what is now the Kirov Ballet,
Bejart eventually developed a complex style of contemporary ballet.
It incorporated movement influences from a number of cultures, along with a
flamboyant theatricality very much in the neo-Expressionist tradition of Western
Europe but foreign to classical dancing.
A key element of that new style was its refusal to accept conventional notions of
what kind of dancing, roles and prominence 'belonged' to males versus females.
Above all, his approach to ballet was personal and intuitive, insisting, as he said, that
'dance is a tool for expressing myself totally, for being,
breathing, living, becoming myself.
