ABBA - Soldiers (Abballet 1984)

The Soldiers scene from the ballet 'Abballet'.
The ballet was directed by ABBA fan and choreographer Birgit Cullberg (1908-1999).

From Wiki:
Cullberg gained international recognition by founding the Cullberg Ballet in the 1960s. On 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 the University of Stockholm, 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.

My apologies for this late reply Shay, 'Soldiers' I think is a little underrated. I like it a lot too.

Thanks!

Really a good one from the ballet. Soldiers marching to war, comming back as skeletons. The music could not be emphasized better than this. Thanks Elin.
