A scene from the ballet "Abballet", from 1984, directed by ᗅᗺᗷᗅ fan and choreographer Birgit Cullberg (1908-1999).
Cullberg studied ballet under Kurt Jooss-Leeder and Lilian Karina and was a member of the Royal Ballet, London, (1952--1957). In 1960, Cullberg was appointed director and choreographer at the Stockholm City Theatre. Some of her choreographies were premiered at the Royal Opera in Stockholm.
Cullberg gained international recognition by founding the Cullberg Ballet in the 1960s. On her retiring in 1985, her son Mats Ek took over the ballet company. The Swedish Arts Grants Committee instituted the Cullberg scholarship in her honour, and she was awarded an honorary professorship at Stockholm University, where she had studied when she was young. She also received the French honour Commendeur des Arts et Lettres and the Italian honour Cavaliere Ufficiale.

Quality pop often brings together pop and classical. I appreciate any good art and dance can add visually. This song goes so well with classical ballet interpretation. The ballet has been beautifully arranged and the female dancer looks very attractive too. It’s the last track on the original release of the Visitors album with very deep and moving words that encompass the passing of time for everyone, sung by Frida with real angelic presence as suggested in the lyrics with powerful emotion.

I'm definitely no ballet fan, but I would like to see Abballet. Anni-Frid sings this song so emotionally. Dancers too are great.
