vipa Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Sorry if this has been posted before, but I just came across it. A short documentary about Bujones in his early days. Some brief but nice footage of Balanchine & Danilova coaching, and some wonderful dancing with Cynthia Gregory are highlight for me. Link to comment
sandik Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 The image of him with the title School of American Ballet 1973 (around 6+ minutes) looks very like photos of Robert Fairchild. Link to comment
BalanchineFan Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Could that be Joseph Duell in the background at SAB, or maybe Ricky Weiss? Link to comment
its the mom Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Gone too soon. We never really got to see his success as an AD. Link to comment
duffster Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Thank you Vipa for finding this documentary of Fernando. When he still was with SAB, he would perform with the Eglevsky Ballet. I had the good fortune to dance with him-along with Marina Eglevsky in the Glinka pas de trois. He was a tremendously hard worker even with all of his natural gifts- never saw him phone it in- either in class or in performance. He also could laugh at himself at times and was a true gentleman. Quite an inspiration to be around as well. Surely gone too soon. In the SAB segment I think I saw Kevin Haigen smiling at one point. Link to comment
