About us
We are choreologist Tatjana Thierbach and our team of close artistic collaborators of Uwe Scholz.
Tatjana Thierbach
was choreologist for Uwe Scholz from 1993 until his death. She notated most of his works and rehearsed them in major companies around the world. During her time with the Leipzig Ballet, she worked closely with Uwe Scholz and studied his artistic intentions. This refers, on the one hand, to the detailed musicality and execution of his choreographies and, on the other hand, to the creation of lighting design, costumes, and stage sets.
In addition, she was always involved when Uwe Scholz transferred a choreography to a new cast or ensemble. Tatjana knows how Uwe Scholz was able to ”adapt” an existing choreography to a new cast with different potentials and personalities. At the same time, he was uncompromising in his demand for the highest technical standards, his straightforward style, and musical interpretation.
Tatjana Thierbach has been the heir to the moral rights of Uwe Scholz since 2020.
Since January 1, 2026, it has also held all usage and licensing rights to the complete works of Uwe Scholz.
Companies or individuals who wish to perform or present one of Uwe Scholz's works or an excerpt thereof are required to obtain permission from the owner.
Christoph Böhm
is a ballet master, choreographer, and former principal dancer with the Leipzig Ballet. He lives in Berlin and teaches classical ballet, pas de deux, and repertoire at the State Ballet School Berlin and the Youth Ballet Berlin. He also regularly performs as a guest with leading companies in Germany and abroad.
As a dancer, he performed leading roles in works by Uwe Scholz, George Balanchine, John Cranko, Youri Vámos, and Glen Tetley.
Böhm has rehearsed Le Corsaire in national and international productions, among other works.
Rehearsals of works by Uwe Scholz repeatedly brought him back to the Leipzig Ballet, as well as to the ballet in Cottbus. He teaches the Scholz repertoire at the State Ballet School in Berlin and performs with his students throughout Germany.
As a sought-after coach, he accompanies dancers to international competitions and regularly leads them to great success.
