DESCRIPTION:Four people are stranded in an empty room and can no longer esc
 ape – except through song. So\, they plan their escape\, or their stay in 
 the trap\, through singing.\n\nFrom songs and symphonic fragments by Gusta
 v Mahler\, Thom Luz and his ensemble create a short world history in sound
 . The production explores the musical possibilities of an empty hall at th
 e end of time\, where four singing\, doubting figures are stranded\, trans
 forming Mahler's massive orchestral settings into chamber music arrangemen
 ts for unusual instrumentation. Classical instruments now exist only as di
 stant memories\, and the songs are about green forests and fresh breezes t
 hat also seem to belong to a world of the past.\n\nMahler's music is marke
 d by melancholy\, overwhelming\, and fear of the rapidly changing world be
 tween centuries. It speaks of the torn and contradictory nature of life\, 
 both then and now\, translating it into symphonic and lyrical tales\, torn
  between superhuman jubilation and world-encompassing sadness.\n\nThus\, a
  space of associations opens up\, concerning the life of the Earth and its
  strange inhabitants\, between musical Robinsonades and Beckett-like waiti
 ng rooms\, where Mahler can be rediscovered just as much as the connection
  between world-weariness and optimism for change.\n\nBecause\, just as Mah
 ler's songs and symphonies often deal with the cosmos of decline\, despair
 \, decay\, and the exhaustion of the world\, Luz’s musical theater evening
 s are never hopeless\, but\, on the contrary\, always full of quiet humor 
 and magically beautiful theater moments.
