Sunday, November 4, 2007 An architectural end to an Operah "I was always interested in the music of Schönberg and in particular his period in Berlin. His greatest work is the opera called 'Moses and Aaron', which could not be completed. For an important structural reason the logic of the libretto could not be completed by the musical score. At the end of the opera, Moses doesn't sing, he just speaks 'oh word, thou word', addressing the absence of the Word, and one can understand it as a 'text', because when there is no more singing, the missing word which is uttered by Moses, the call for the Word, the call for the Deed, is understood clearly. I sought to complete that opera architecturally and that is the second aspect of this project. |
