Calendar

On stage: a bell that weighs two tons, a skateboard halfpipe and a waterfall. The Austrian performance artist Florentina Holzinger demolishes stage genres and visual habits. Setting out from Paul Hindemith’s one-act opera Sancta Susanna (premiered in 1922), she joins forces with an ensemble of opera singers, sex workers and body modification artists to investigate the way female identities and bodies are trimmed in religious systems and rites. The drama about a nun’s lust and sexuality is intertwined with new compositions by Johanna Doderer, Born in Flamez and Stefan Schneider as well as with religious works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Sergei Rachmaninoff and others. It is a musical and performative reflection on bodies and sexuality that evolves into a celebration of a mass together with the audience.

Pone spes in planctu amaro
Solo motets and violin sonatas by Isabella Leonarda (1620-1704)

During her 68 years at the Collegio di Sant'Orsola, Isabella Leonarda composed more than two hundred published works in twenty published collections. Born into minor nobility in Novara in 1620, she entered the Ursuline convent at the age of sixteen, rising to the office of Madre superior in 1686 and Madre vicaria in 1693 before her death in 1704. She is considered one of the most productive female composers of the 16th and 17th centuries.

Her approximately 100 solo motets combine technical virtuosity with a highly personal expression of religious fervor. The texts are frequently non-liturgical, rich in imagery and assumed to be written by Leonarda herself. They offer a fascinating insight into both Leonarda’s own deep and personified beliefs and the larger theological context of a 17th-century nunnery.

In spite of their musical quality, most of Leonarda’s works have not be re-performed in modern times, and only a handful have been recorded or published in modern editions -- making several pieces in this concert modern premieres.

For centuries, artists across all genres have been inspired by natural bodies of water. Elgar's Sea Pictures, published in 1899, reflect on human life on and around the sea, while the west Irish landscape around Lough Derg near Limerick inspired the poems in the 2019 collection And Say by contemporary writer Jessica Brown. In 2020, five of these poems were set to a new song cycle Watershed by the Irish composer Ailís Ní Ríain in 2020 as part of an Irish Arts Council Commission Award for pianist Yonit Kosovske.

Auf Ein Wort

Bertolt Brecht was one of the most influential German poets and playwrights of the 20th century. Many of his texts question the role of the individual in society. What is a person worth? From what source do people draw their sense of self-worth? What happens in a society where people's worth goes unrecognized? Auf ein Wort* features song settings by Hanns Eisler and Paul Dessau on these and related themes.

For the Kulturvilla Mettmann's Sommerfest, Auf Ein Wort will be presented in shortened form (30 minutes) and in a duo formation.
