It was a very special moment for me personally as Mr. Baryshnikov was the dancer which I have idolized from the distance since when I was in the ballet school in Albania back in late '80. The first time I had the pleasure to watch him dance live on stage was only in 2009 when Mr. Baryshnikov danced with Ana Laguna in Amsterdam.
