The song play Mahagonny (Mahagonny Songspiel) and the ballet opera The Seven Deadly Sins (Die Sieben Todsünden) are two classic works by the famous duo of epic musical theater, Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht .

Are ethical choices only the privilege of the elite? Answers are sought without losing sight of pitch-black humor. The satirical, mischievously critical works of the influence of the power of money on human morality and its consequences for our planet perfectly fit our times filled with crises, just as they were already written during the tumultuous Weimar Republic in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s.

Weill composed the song play Pikku Mahagonny to Brecht's texts in 1927 for the Baden-Baden Music Festival. In the interpretation, the morally corrupt group is returning from the climate meeting and unexpectedly left at the mercy of nature. The group has to face the consequences of their own helplessness and lifestyle.

The Seven Deadly Sins was premiered after Weill had already gone into exile in Germany at the foot of National Socialism emerging in Paris in 1933. In the opera, two sisters leave their home region in Louisiana to earn the money to build a house for their brothers and parents who have not received it. During their seven-year journey across America, the siblings encounter the seven deadly sins.

The works, which describe the world and humanity critically, but also with unrestrained and pitch-black humor, bring out human weaknesses such as greed, envy, pride, laziness and anger. Can all of us afford to make choices on moral grounds, or is it the case that only the wealthy have the opportunity to live ethically?

English

Laulunäytelmä Mahagonny (Mahagonny Songspiel) ja balettiooppera Seitsemän kuolemansyntiä (Die sieben Todsünden) ovat eeppisen musiikkiteatterin kuuluisan työparin Kurt Weill ja Bertolt Brecht kaksi klassikkoteosta.

Ovatko eettiset valinnat vain eliitin etuoikeus? Vastauksia etsitään sysimustaa huumoria kaihtamatta. Satiiriset, ilkikurisesti rahan mahdin vaikutusta ihmisen moraalille ja sen seurauksia planeetallemme kritisoivat teokset osuvat oivallisesti kriisien täyttämään aikaamme, aivan kuin jo valmistuessaan kuohuvan Weimarin tasavallan aikaan 1920–1930-lukujen Saksassa.

Weill sävelsi Pikku Mahagonny -laulunäytelmän Brechtin teksteihin 1927 Baden-Badenin musiikkijuhlille. Tulkinnassa moraalisesti turmeltunut seurue on palaamassa ilmastokokouksesta ja jäänyt yllättäen luonnon armoille. Ryhmä joutuu kohtaamaan oman avuttomuutensa ja elämäntapansa seuraukset.

Seitsemän kuolemansyntiä kantaesitettiin Weillin jo lähdettyä maanpakoon Saksassa nousevan kansallissosialismin jaloista Pariisiin vuonna 1933. Oopperassa kaksi sisarta jättää kotiseutunsa Louisianassa ansaitakseen saamattomille veljilleen ja vanhemmilleen talonrakennusrahat. Seitsemän vuoden matkallaan halki Amerikan sisarukset kohtaavat seitsemän kuolemansyntiä.

Maailmanmenoa ja ihmisyyttä kriittisesti, mutta myös hillittömällä ja sysimustalla huumorilla kuvaavat teokset tuovat esiin ihmisen heikkouksia kuten ahneutta, kateutta, ylpeyttä, laiskuutta ja vihaa. Onko kaikilla meistä varaa tehdä valintoja moraalisin perustein, vai onko niin, että vain varakkailla on mahdollisuus elää eettisesti?
