Using four well-known poems by Else Lasker-Schüler as basis of a vocal work does not mean “setting to music†in the customary sense to the composer Lothar Voigtländer from Dresden: The colourful figure of the poetess, her unusual imageries, her (even religious) visions, as well as her close relation with renowned fine artists of her time had been on his mind for quite some time and in 2009 found their way into this composition: The dramatic, irregularly declaiming singing voice is harmonised with mystic, exotic piano farlands and the sounds of bells. At the composition competition of the Viennese Mahler Society in 2010, the songs were awarded the 1st prize.
