Commissioned by Gavin Bryars' long-standing collaborators, ensemble Aventa, and with a libretto by author and poet Marilyn Bowering, Bryars' Marilyn Forever examines the inner life of Marilyn Monroe, and her intellectual and emotional relationships with death and love.Often seen as a victim, fantasy and sex object, the character of Monroe is fleshed out in this chamber opera: 'We are given through Monroe's own voice her combination of sensitivity and exhibitionism, allied to the narrative of the 'chorus', a view from the 'inside' of the conflicting emotion and ambitions of this compelling and timeless personality.' (Aventa) / Choeur

Hier kommt die etwas andere Fachliteratur für Chorleitung. Reiner Schuhenn und seine Co-Autoren sprechen Themen an, die über die künstlerischen Aufgaben des Dirigenten hinausgehen. Sinnvolles Zeitmanagement, rechtliche Fragen oder zeitgemäße Menschenführung - viele Chorleiter lassen diese Punkte außer Acht. Probleme mit dem Chor oder Chorvorstand sind die Folge. Dieser Ratgeber bearbeitet eher weniger beachtete Themen und gibt Chorleitern und Chormanagern Hintergrundwissen über ihre musikalische Arbeit hinaus. / Choeur
