Press & Audience Voices

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

I was very impressed by Elisabeth’s fine, poetic and sensitive work. I would never have thought that one could imagine choreographies in such  symbiosis with the music. What a wonderful work!’ 

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘Prime example’ of ‘the thinking of the art of tomorrow’

‘Elisabeth Schilling is not afraid of challenges.

She has proven this by the diversity of her creations and artistic projects to date, and by the way she is able to build bridges with other artistic disciplines and with the public. Cultural institutions are snapping her up. She is currently an associate artist at the Trifolion in Echternach and at the Grand Théâtre in Luxembourg.’

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘”Hear eyes Move. Dances with Ligeti”, fortissimo!(…)Brian Ca, Cree Barnett-Williams, Malcolm Sutherland, Elisabeth Christine Holth and Piera Jovic, who all put in an enormous, physical, harmonious performance…Solos alternate with ensemble movements on a stage bathed in white for an atypical but powerful dance-concert! We love it!’

”Schilling’s entire very complex and sensitive choreography’

‘Winner of the Lëtzebuerger Danzpräis, Elisabeth Schilling is the young star of the European contemporary dance’ 

INVISIBLE DANCES. Art in & around Lockdown

‘It was wonderful to be able to host ‘Invisible Dances’ in the Highlands, bringing such an accessible and innovative format to dance performance. The traces brought colour into unexpected places and inspired exploration and play.’

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘(…) test dance as a way of representing a good community all over again. This artistic bridge over the trenches of the present perhaps comes at just the right time.’

PORTRAIT

‘Emotional and spiritual power combine in Elisabeth Schilling’s choreographies to create a fascinating language.’

HEAR EYES MOVE

‚A turning point in the young choreographer’s career.’

Sketches on Ligeti

‘We were strongly touched by the tight, intimate collaboration of live piano an body in motion. Not only is Cathy Krier’s rendering of Ligèty’s music an asset for the show to come, but her sheer physical, highly concentrated presence on stage adds to Elisabeth Schilling’s round and well considered, poetic, yet clear and readable dance moves. We consider the project to associate both talents to be a plain success.’

What was presented in the small excerpt created an enormous appetite for more.’

HEAR EYES MOVE

‚HEAR EYES MOVE is a mammoth project. The choreographer Elisabeth Schilling ventures into the highly complex piano etudes by György Ligeti. Together with pianist Cathy Krier and five dancers, she follows the colours of the tones: a fusion of new music and contemporary dance at eye level.’

PORTRAIT

‘Her impressive work moves along the tension between a vision and its coherent realisation via the body language of dance.‘

HEAR EYES MOVE

‘The sound and dance experience impresses on a musical as well as the dance level with perfect precision’

‘They are magical images that (…) exude a moving aesthetic‘.

‘To the sometimes hard tones of Ligeti (…) the dancers float over the stage, sometimes like wind-up dolls, sometimes like birds, do pirouettes or slump and grow out of themselves and over the stage’.

”Radical, not softened’ 

Sketches on Ligeti

‚These first choreographic research results are promising. The harmony and interplay between Cathy Krier and Elisabeth Schilling is already at a very high level.’

Sketches on Ligeti

‚We had the pleasure to guest a two weeks residency of Ms. Shilling in our studio last June. I was really impressed by the concept of her «Mosaikgleiche Augenblicklichkeiten, Skizzen zu Ligeti» and the severe work that she did on the performing aspect of it. I specially appreciated the refined conceptual relation between the very complex and rigid piano score and the open, even though surprisingly precise, movement pattern. This is why we decided to present the Ligeti project in our next autumn programation.‘

INVISIBLE DANCES. Art in & around Lockdown

‚One of the most innovative global art projects of the present‘

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘In full light or in a nocturnal atmosphere, the various studies by Ligeti come alive and show all their richness, as does Elisabeth Schilling’s dance with its powerful structure.’

FELT

‚Working with Elizabeth Schilling on bringing FELT to the Byre Theatre, St Andrews, was one of the most creative and joyful experiences of my working life. The performance in the evening was absorbing, emotional, thought provoking and truly beautiful. Elizabeth combines an intellectually rigorous approach to her research with an ability to fluently communicate her ambition and intention for the piece. (…) Elizabeth puts audience experience at the centre of her performances, her ability to gently and beautifully engage with her audiences is impressive and is incredibly helpful in breaking down the barriers normally associated with contemporary dance, which can only support audience growth and development for the artform. This is especially evident in her approach to post show conversation which creates a safe space for discourse.We are extremely fortunate that an artist of Elizabeth’s calibre is happy to work with us in Scotland and I very much look forward to our next adventure together.’ 

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘Something like this seems like a challenge nowadays (…) this is exactly what makes HEAR EYES MOVE subtitle Dances with Ligeti a statement now’ 

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘Ligeti even became ‘danceable’ through Elisabeth Schilling’s astonishing concept.’

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘The engagement of the body is powerful and many images emerge through these beings who fall, stagger and sometimes lean on an imaginary line offering a unique poetry. They move to the sound of the piano in symbiosis with a refreshing energy and the strength of the collective is there.’

FELT

‚Mesmerizing, very intruiguing!’ 

HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti

‘Regarding the aesthetics of the presence a  surprising piece’

HEAR EYES MOVE

‚Music and dance are indeed on an equal footing.
Both genres form an almost perfect symbiosis’.

PORTRAIT

‘Immense energy and empathetic attentiveness exude from the young, tall woman who has always wanted to be a dancer.’

HEAR EYES MOVE

‘Hear Eyes Move proves that the meticulous preparation of the project by the choreographer has borne fruit. And how tasty they are!’

‘We can see in this determination, this tenacity, this creativity to adapt to the circumstances, the hallmark of the work of Elisabeth Schilling.‘

‘There is a lot of grace and liveliness in this writing, a substrate of classicism on which contrasting expressions fan out, distinct or flexible, tense or relaxed, adjusted to the millimeter and remarkably executed by a collective in symbiosis with the pianist.’

INVISIBLE DANCES. Art in & around Lockdown

‘Invisible Dances was a brilliant, engaging, and unique performance piece perfect for bringing local artists
and audiences together during lockdown in a safe and creative environment.’
