A festival of new music theatre: 18th Münchener Biennale explores the theme of good friends, opening with a new work based on writings by Ukrainian author Serhiy Zhadan
[…] poet and writer Serhiy Zhadan (in a German translation by Claudia Dathe). The work examines the dramatic effect on the human individual of war, displacement and flight, using a blend of choral passages and short dialogues to depict everyday situations and fictional experiences of flight and forced migration. The production is a co-production with Deutsche Oper, Berlin, where the production opens on 21 May 2022. There are also premieres of works by Yoav Pasovsky, Ann Cleare, Lucia Kilger and Nicolas Berge, Polina Korobkova, Øyvind Torvund, and Malin Bång, as well as discussions and other events including the delightfully named Salon of Wondering and Views.

Interesting and heartening to see Janáček fare so well, but there was one very clear winner for 2021: Opera 6 Mozart3 Janáček 2 Gluck, Wagner 1 Darren Berry, Cavalli, Enescu, Humperdinck, Ravel, Strauss, Tippett, Alastair White Concerts 6 Mozart 5 Beethoven, Schubert 3 Schumann, Stravinsky 2 JS Bach, Bartók, Brahms, Haydn, Janáček, Mahler, Messiaen, Purcell, Ravel, Sibelius, Strauss 1 CPE Bach, WF Bach, Martin Baker, Mason Bates, Benjamin, Berlioz, Berg, Georg Böhm, Joseph Bologne, Bruch, Byrd, Britta Byström, Chopin, Ann Cleare, Couperin, Debussy, Dvořák, Elgar, Brian Elias, Raquel García-Tomás, Gerhard, Gibbons, Gossec, Guerrero, […]
