Die Bibel (In der Übersetzung von NOVOFLOT)

Beschreibung

500 years after Luther nailed his 95 theses to the portal of a chapel in Wittenberg Berlin opera company NOVOFLOT glanced over the preliminary result of five centuries of reformation and stop beating around the bush: while the reformative spirit occasionally still helps to overcome certain frailties of mind, it also helps to facilitate a perpetual lack of spiritual humour, phantasy, a gnawing moral-monotony and a feeling of inconsolable distance between man and god. This is where NOVOFLOT enter the scene with the utopia of a counter-reformation in the spirit of Fernando Pessoa, Frederike Mayröcker, Claudio Puntin and Michael Wertmüller, presenting part #2 and #3 of a project that started in front of the Volksbühne: “The Bible (in the translation of NOVOFLOT)”. It helped create spaces of musical theatre, in which the arrival of a new divinity that is close and joyous to humankind can seem that wee bit more probable. Experience all this in the heart of the city: Berlin Alexanderplatz.
 
 For #2 Oasis NOVOFLOT connected in the Parochial church rests of lyrics and scores of Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy’s oratorio “Elias” follows at the former First-Fitness-Club at Fernsehturm a choir composition by the Swiss musician Claudio Puntin to a half-scenic, half-filmic Fata Morgana for a big screen, choir, dancers, musicians and vocal soloists. It is conceivable what will follow #3 In the purgatory, musically planned by Michael Wertmüller.
