The sound of an obsession is perhaps the best way to describe the opera Jakob Lenz by composer Wolfgang Rihm. Caroline Petrick interprets this intense work in a unique way .

The poet Jakob Lenz (1751-1792) was one of the most important theater innovators of early Romanticism with his plays Der Hofmeister and Die Soldaten . During his life he clashed violently with Goethe, who by then had unapproachable literary authority. A failed attempt at an affair with Goethe's lover Friederike Brion turned into an obsession for this woman. This also revealed his schizophrenia. After wandering around for a long time, Lenz found shelter with pastor Johan Friedrich Oberlin, through the mediation of Christoph Kaufmann. The family cared for the critically ill poet until he left.

Georg Büchner described the period the poet spent with the Oberlin family in detail in his novella Lenz.  He mainly concentrates on the poet's inner states of mind. This 'psychiatric reconstruction' by Büchner in turn formed the basis for the composition of Wolfgang Rihm, who himself describes his work as 'opaque, confused and passionate music', which manages to touch Lenz's character to the deepest abyss.

English

De verklanking van een obsessie, zo omschrijf je de opera Jakob Lenz van componist Wolfgang Rihm misschien het best. Caroline Petrick interpreteert dit intense werk op een eigenzinnige manier .

De dichter Jakob Lenz (1751-1792) was met zijn toneelstukken Der Hofmeister en Die Soldaten een van de belangrijkste theatervernieuwers van de vroege romantiek. Tijdens zijn leven botste hij hevig met Goethe, die inmiddels over ongenaakbare literaire autoriteit beschikte. Een mislukte poging om een verhouding te beginnen met Goethes geliefde Friederike Brion veranderde in een obsessie voor deze vrouw. Hierdoor kwam ook zijn schizofrenie aan het licht. Na lange tijd te hebben rondgezworven vond Lenz, door de bemiddeling van Christoph Kaufmann, onderdak bij pastoor Johan Friedrich Oberlin. Het gezin verzorgde de doodzieke dichter, totdat hij weer vertrok.

Georg Büchner beschreef de periode die de dichter bij de familie Oberlin doorbracht, uitvoerig in zijn novelle Lenz. Hij concentreert zich daaerbij vooral  op de innerlijke gemoedstoestanden van de dichter. Deze 'psychiatrische reconstructie' van Büchner vormde op haar beurt weer de basis voor de compositie van Wolfgang Rihm, die zijn werk zelf beschrijft als 'ondoorzichtige, verwarde en gepassioneerde muziek', die het karakter van Lenz tot in de diepste afgronden weet te raken.
