Gabriel Kahane: emergency shelter intake form for four vocal soloists, community choir and orchestra (German premiere)
Antonín Dvořák: Symphony No. 9 "From the New World"
Without a home: Gabriel Kahane makes audible what happens when cold administrative acts collide with human destinies. From the wooden official language of an emergency shelter questionnaire for the homeless, he creates a haunting oratorio about inequality - at once sad and funny, succinct and angry. Kahane's American musical language between pop, classical and minimal music encounters Dvořák's impressions of the USA around 1900, captured in his famous Ninth Symphony.
