Πόλεμος - Εἰρήνη-War and Peace

" War and peace" - Scenic concert - GREECE

The venues: In the garden of the muses with us and in other suitable locations will be announced in March 2023!

 

„War and Peace“ is known as the title of Leo Tolstoy's novel published 150 years ago but already Aristophanes thematized in his comedy „Eirene“ (421 BC) war and the yearning for peace through ending the battle of Eirene and Polemos by the determined commitment of Trygaios a winemaker who leads Eirene to victory.
The concert project „POLEMOS – EIRENE“ borrows the title of Tolstoy's work and puts in contrast compositions which arose from the topic of war with Schulze's „serious comedy“ written in the concept of a „mini-mono-opera“: mini because it's short – mono because it's for one singer only – Austrian bass-baritone Rupert Bergmann - who performs all of the roles.
The central statement of the Aristophanes-Schulze-piece Trygaios is the desire for peace. It deals with the difficulties to bring about peace and with problems keeping it against oppositions and obstacles.
The ensemble consits of five experienced chamber musicians who all are professors of the well-known Josef Matthis Hauer music school of Wiener Neustadt (Lower Austria): Kurt Franz Schmid (clarinet), Cordula Schröck (violin), Stefan Teufert (cello), Raphaela Schober-Lengyel (piano) and Johannes Tremel (percussion).
