Requiem for a Young Poet

Approved

The  "Requiem for a Young Poet "is Bernd Alois Zimmermann's last composition and his second major work alongside" The Soldiers ". With a gigantic line-up of four choirs, orchestra, jazz band, organ, singers and speakers, Zimmermann finds a unique musical expression for the anxious question about the future in the face of oppression and recurring wars. In the work, which the composer himself describes as a lingual (language piece), tape recordings of political, philosophical and literary texts from 1920 to 1970 meet a moving composition based on the requiem liturgy, electronic sounds are also played live The result is a large, multi-perspective sound space in which, according to Zimmermann's idea of ​​the "spherical shape of time", the past,Present and future can be experienced as a unit.
