Jan Müller-Wieland: »Der Knacks«. Melodrama based on a libretto by Roger Willemsen (world premiere, joint commis­sion by Ensemble Resonanz, Beethovenfest Bonn and NDR)

»Der Knacks«

»Willemsen’s book of the same name is many things: it is per­sonal, journalistic, essayistic, liter­ary, cultural scientific and political. This reading material fascinated me.« Jan Müller-Wieland briefly and succinctly summarized the first impressions that caused him to put excerpts from Roger Willemsen’s auto­biography »Der Knacks« to music. The two protagonists will perform the melodrama per­sonally in Bonn. A performance, particularly one of such a sub­jective work, could hardly be any more authentic.
