›staubkinder‹ is inspired by the music of gustav mahler and is dedicated to the staubkinder that we are. they are deeply embedded in our individual and universal memories.

premiere 7 dec 2022

»in ›staubkinder‹there is no inflated drama, but such an unsparingly clear view, also of the fears and crises that threaten to overwhelm us in our present. a really powerful piece. it takes time until the audience can free itself from such a kind of bias. and then cheers.« frank schmid, rbb-kultur
