He entered the world of dance (in collaboration with Pierre Henry) for Maurice
Béjart's, "Messe pour le temps present." This work was recently remixed under the title
"Metamorphose" by the "Who's Who" of DJ's headed by William Orbit and Fat Boy Slim. His love of
modern dance led him to write for some of the brightest stars of our time: Mikhail Baryshnikov,
Twyla Tharp, Roland Petit, Jean Babilée, Daniel Ezralow, American Ballet Theater, les Ballets de
L'Opéra de Paris. He composed the music for "Le bourgeois gentilhomme" at the illustrious "Comédie
française." In his only creation for stage, Colombier skillfully combined some of Lulli's
original music with his own and gathered the best pop musicians and singers to perform on the
stage of the venerable house. It is no surprise that the collaboration with Barrault turned into
a huge popular success, and the play went on for years. |
