On 30th and 31st of August, we premiered our piece „Wie quälst Du mein Herz“ at the main station in Berlin.
Based on interviews with jealous people, a universal feeling is explored:
How fast will I become a violent criminal? How do tantra and jealousy fit together? Do reconciliation pills actually work? And: can one recognize a heart tormented by jealousy in the EKG? The music is based on the treatment of madrigals of the renaissance composer Carlo Gesualdo, who murdered his wife and her lover out of jealousy.
