criticism
In New Germany , Eberhard Rebling wrote :
“You have to confirm it to the directors of the dance theater ensemble of the Komische Oper Berlin, the chief choreographer Tom Schilling and the ballet director and librettist Bernd Köllinger anew at every premiere: they are committed to realizing Walter Felsenstein's goals with consistency, inventiveness and risk-taking To produce music theater in the most diverse forms of dance, from classical and new full-length ballet to small forms of chamber dance.
