Das Lied von der Erde with poems by Elisabeth Frischauf
November 2025, saw two Memorable performances of Das Lied von der Erde at the Kurhaus Bad tölz and Bergson Kulturkraftwerk Theater, Munich Germany
Hear the poems: Truth, Shoot'em, a fragment of Love Lingers on the short video below:, extracted from the complete performance.
This Lied von der Erde is an hour-long woven tapestry in memory of the ending of WW II, of Nazi banned music and writing by those who managed to escape and those who perished. Conceived and directed through a contemporary lens, by Martina Veh, with my voice and poems in Soundscape by Christoph Reiserer. Also performing: Soprano, Stephanie Krug; Actor, Stefan Wilkening; Dancer, Alberto Pagani; Conductor, Maria Fitzgerald.

Who gets to be in and who gets to be out?
Gimme Shelter!
Inside it's warm, there's a basket with plenty. There are blankets and cuddles; Santa comes regularly. It's home, Home, HOME.
Outside it's cold or way too hot and hard and scary. Dirty. Home—less. Looked through, if at all. Forgotten.
Death comes wherever we are.
Inside & Outside
WE are EQUAL
