Kafka's ouvre is interspersed with moments of utter anxiety. Moments in which, induced by adrenalin, the blood pressure rises. Blood vessels which seem to constrict, pump enormous quantities of blood the pressure of which might make one believe that the head is going to explode. In The Judgment, an innocent opening story leads to one of the most unusual showdowns in world literature: The beloved father sentences his son to death by drowning; the son immediately obeys since his life, his existence almost explodes, becomes blurred, dissolves at the moment the judgment is pronounced. For me, the 'self' driving him - I imagine this as a high sound in the inner ear - could only be a soprano. This is why the actual 'fall' has turned out to be clear, almost friendly and why Georg only seems to want to breathe a soft and quiet 'Dear parents, I have always loved you' during the fall while no longer keeping the singing tone, shortly before death, almost casually, takes hold of him.

A Pole with Jewish roots, traveller and student, the versatile composer and publicist Szymon Laks developed his artistic maturity inthe fertile environment of the French capital between the world wars. Close to the Ecole de Paris, Laks' enthusiasm and openness forpopular music, neo-classicism and Polish song can also be heard in his works. His work was abruptly interrupted by the Second World War and his deportation to the Auschwitz concentration camp. In the song cycle created in 1947, which is full of tension on the frontiers between art song and folklore, Laks' most personal memories of his mother's singing - as well as of the Jewish culture in Poland, which was destroyed by National Socialism - echo through.
