Fernando Bujones had rhythm, heart and passion, he changed tempo, sometimes fast feet mixed appropriately with slow turns (following the music) kept up the motion, while demonstrating control. Didn't pose 'preparing' for stuff, definitely an artist of more then mere technique. This man truly loved dancing, and I can see it made him (and me) happy!
I love his work! He never got any where near enough recognition, in my opinion. I wonder why? His leaps are absolutely ethereal. I've had the joy of seeing him dance live with Makarova...he took my breath away.
Fernando Bujones is undeniably the BEST danseur that America has ever produced! Perfect technique, clean, long line, strong legs and feet (displayed so well in this 'brutal solo'), and that rare gift of BRILLIANCE!!! ...A LEGEND and an ICONIC DANSEUR NOBLE!
I absolutely love him. He is in so many of my dance videos I own and he is amazing, so good for his day and vastly underated. I was so excited for the South Eastern Regional Ballet Association festival because I was going to have class with him but then he got sick with cancer :( I remember being told he died the morning of a performance of mine, it was so sad
This is so great. I wish that there were more male ballet dancers these days - they are so good! It is a shame really. : ( There is only one boy in my ballet school (as far as I know), and my friends and I feel sorry for him because he may feel embarrassed dancing with about ten other girls in one class. GOOD FOR HIM THOUGH. And also, not all male ballet dancers have to be gay!! Lolz.
i don't think that is true.....that the majority of dancers with professional careers are straight. That's not been my experience, and I am a professional male ballet dancer, and yes, I am gay
he was the artistic director of the orlando ballet which i was in for quite a while. he was not only a great dancer but also an amazing choreographer. his death was a devastating loss to us.. R.I.P. Fernando..
Not only those wonderful legs but the impressive feet line, i think his most remarkable feature, as men are commonly lacking in good feet. The sasme variation but for the varna contest that he won is even better.
Damn, that's impressive

@kontact666
you're gay and I have no problem with that
I DO have a problem with UBNOXIOUS comments like yours regarding what you think is hot or sexy or whatever
Bujones was not dancing to appease your gay fantasy
keep that stuff to yourself and respect the youtube community eh?

In watching this video one one think he was still alive! yet his spirit is in my belief, sadly his
life was cut short` but the impact he left on the
world will last forever.
