« The dancers are accompanied live by the Swiss/French Ensemble Batida. Their instrumentation includes not only conventional instruments such as piano, keyboard and drums, but for instance also a typewriter. At times they softly whisper French texts to the dancers, while later on they hit their instruments with full force. The composition of Richard van Kruysdijk gives a boost to the dancers and strengthens the choreography. »

« The language of movement that Van Daele created with his dancers is fast, wild and full… The presence of the musicians on stage, their movements and their communication with each other are extremely fascinating to monitor during the performance. »
