Event details
Winterreise in the 21st century. The first-person character searches in vain for peace. Crammed into big city streets and a cramped apartment, she closes herself off from her own feelings and plunges into mental isolation. Valentin Baumgartner creates a contemporary song cycle based on Schubert's Winterreise.
"Doped up in the intoxication of work, consumption and big city hustle and bustle, a delusion of control over the emotions of the modern-day wanderer emerges. Slowly and steadily, the environment transforms into a Kafkaesque stage set, which finally collapses in on itself: 'Es gaht alles de Bach durab'."
"I translate Schubert's Winterreise from classical music into a contemporary language between pop/urban and art music. With my band "Extrafish" and singer Mona Somm I celebrate dubby, trippy pop music in a dada wall." Valentin Baumgartner, Lyrics and Composition, Musician.
Extrafish's dewy urban music concert accompanies Caroline Schenk's multi-channel video installation on Schubert's Winterreise.
