To Fall Safely by Syrse, sek 11 rgs 2022, Nuo (2022/2023), Režisierius Jörg Wesemüller, Dirigentas Anton Lee-Stein

Two young authors receive a commission for a piece. They work their way through Richard Wagner's "Ring des Nibelungen" until they free themselves from this overwhelming bracket for their own text. They resolutely snatch decals of heteronormative thinking from their template. There they are now – on stage with their characters. Di and Owl, which don't fit into Wagner's scheme of binaries and mythical figures at all. Alpha bundles all of the male attributions of Wotan, Siegfried and the other »powerful« heroes into a template-like role. Dolly is his female counterpart. Together both authors throw their figures into a terrarium. In this attempt behind glass, inveterate stereotypes negotiate their effectiveness side by side on an equal footing - without biography, without social status, Katharina Kern and Jeannette Petrik have poured this attempt into a libretto for which Diana Syrse is responsible for the music. Their composition is characterized by influences from jazz, rock, fusion, traditional music from all over the world and avant-garde as well as electronics.
