“Upon first hearing Helikopter-Quartett by Karlheinz Stockhausen, the idea of creating a choreography to this music did not cross my mind at all since this work seemed to erode, at each turn of the helix, the actual foundations of a relationship between music and dance. It is, in fact, for this reason that, on a second hearing, the jubilatory desire to confront the intertwining helix turbines and the glissandi of the Arditti Quartet irrepressibly emerged. The challenge of this creation is to expose six dancers to the wild, techno-organic rhythms of this piece by Stockhausen”.
