Programme Note
Part of the cycle "Im...":
Im Entsiegeln (2026)
Unveiled through the unsealing, it explores the most unstable, interrogative, vocal-instrumental compositional space-time signatures and reveals the final traces of music as it fades away.
It refers directly to the silence mentioned at the beginning of Chapter 8 of the Book of Revelation: “And when the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.”
