Song cycles by Rita Strohl (1865-1941) and Lili Boulanger (1893-1918)
Although productive and successful during their lifetimes, both Rita Strohl and Lili Boulanger lived outside of the artistic and intellectual communities that nurtured them. Strohl withdrew from Paris to found an experimental theater in a faraway village, while Lili Boulanger was forced to spend most of her short life in isolation due to chronic illness. It is highly unlikely that they ever met, and yet their artistic voices seem to recognize one another: in their choice of poetic texts and the delicacy of their musical settings, in the intensity of their expression, and in their ability to shape vast and radiant soundscapes from a place of seclusion. Their artistic dialogue is suggested here in the intimate form of a song recital, a genre uniquely suited to convey personal emotions, poetic imagery, and subtle shades of expression.

What are days for? To wake us up. To put between the endless nights. What are the nights for? To slip through time into another world.
-- Laurie Anderson
Under a waning half-moon and the watchful eyes of the river guards, six boats glide through twilight into darkness. Their illuminating lanterns cast shadows onto the water's surface and the reedy riverbanks; the night air is filled with the sweet sound of baroque music.
Every boat hosts a different ensemble. Together, they illustrate the musical depth and range of the European Baroque era. At certain points, they come to rest, inviting the audience to hear them up close. They can be heard from the riverbanks, the ports and locks or, in another boat, from on the river itself.
In our boat, Gli aeronauti di Monteverdi (lisa Solomon, Lea Völzer, Julie Comparini, Matthew Glandorf, and Alexander Schuhmann) sing madrigals by Claudio Monteverdi under the direction of Matthew Glandorf.
Concept and mise-en-scène: Peter Schenk
