“Full of yearning for something lost” reads the unpronounceable title of this emblematic performance created in 2004 by the German avant-garde director and composer, Heiner Goebbels, out of an anthology of pensées published by Nobel laureate Elias Canetti.
The production opens up whole new vistas for music theater, and the experience of a holistic work of art to 21st-century audiences.
The music by Bach, Shostakovich, Ravel, Crumb, Scelsi and Goebbels himself performed by the celebrated Mondriaan Quartet, the talent of the veteran actor André Wilms and the inspired marriage of words, sounds and images come together to create an audio-visual spectacular which is much a mental as a visual challenge.

Masterclass with Heiner Goebbels: “On the polyphony of composed theater”
Tuesday 25 February
13:00-16:00 | Dance Room | 15 €
The classical concept of 'drama' is usually focusing on psychological conflicts between representative figures on stage. In his lecture Heiner Goebbels develops – with video examples of his music theater works – how this concept is being replaced by a 'drama of perception' for the spectator. Polyphony of the media and counterpoints between music and literature, body and voice, listening and seeing etc. stand for the artistic development towards a theater as experience – beyond linear narrativity and beyond the conventional concept of presence and intensity.
