"The company PILOTTANZT, which is visiting Copenhagen for the first time belongs to the absolute new dynamic and exciting part of the Austrian dance scene. Roderich Madl found a very personal form in his choreographic language, which is not loaded with words and which describes the challenges one is faced with. Communication between people and the thread of loosing it is the starting point for Madl´s choreographic work. The dancers performe fantasies and dreams with almost diturbing naturalness. The compact performance (Things from Above) is dynamic, darmatic and challenges and changes our conventional opinion about obsession and repression."
Danse Scenen Kopenhagen

 

"Locomotives with the grace of lizards seemed to disperse space in all its verticals, horizontals and digonals. ... That which can not be tamed, which dances by itself is made visible.."
Gernot W. Zimmermann, tanz affiche

 

"The duets where dominated by an international >Combat-Style<, which developed from Contact Impovisation. Here partners attack each other aggressivly, ... definitely a reflexion of the aggression potetial of contemporary society. The >x-tracts< of the Austrian Roderich Madl, a good and evil piece, fullfiled this style in the most brutal way."
Jochen Schmidt in German monthly dance journal ballett international / tanz aktuell

" ...with subtle dance-vitality and a sometimes almost violent motoricity they devlopped a figure of classical dance new... they use a very personal choreographic language ... their dance was sensual and animal at the same time, pure and raw but never destructive, powerful and still full of verve, aggressive and dynamic."
Christian Furling, La Voix, Armentières, France

 

"The scenes have a powerful massive and thrilling attraction." René Linke,WZ, Germany

WIENER ZEITUNG

 

"Contemporary dance -entire work of art ... Kreisler transcribes some moments of movement into mysterious background pictures, which are reflecting the action like shadows. The transitory of dance like this gets a note of permanence. ...Pilottanzt confirms with this successful stilistic development the reputation of beeing Austrias leading free dance company."
SALZBURGER NACHRICHTEN
