Elisabeth & Company are in residence at the Moselmusikfestival in St. Maximin, Trier this summer. Within this residency Elisabeth will work on the new piece HEAR EYES MOVE. Dances with Ligeti.
We are excited to announce the creation of a new work HEAR EYES MOVE Dances with Ligeti to premiere on 16th / 17th December 2020 Grand Théâtre de la Ville de Luxembourg. Elisabeth Schilling will, together with five dancers and pianist Cathy Krier, present an unprecedented choreographic interpretation of the virtuoso Etudes pour Piano by renowned composer György Ligeti.This creation is co-produced by Grand Théâtre de la Ville de Luxembourg, Kunstfest Weimar and Moselmusikfestival and furthermore supported by Philharmonie Luxembourg, TROIS C-L Luxembourg amongst others.
The Hand Wash Dance humorously engages an everyday skill that suddenly took centre stage during the Covid-19 pandemic. Drawing on a number of medical and instructional videos, the choreography seeks to bring a little more fun to an individual exercise in hygiene that still helps save lives. The Hand Wash Dance is part of a a competition launched by the TROIS C-L Luxembourg. Check the whole video and vote for us HERE!
