On the Disappearance of the Father

Chin-Hsien Chung's chamber opera "Vom Verschwinden vom Vater" is an exploration of the fading of a family's collective memories of their father.
In fragmentary pieces of memory and words, Wolfram Höll describes loving, lonely, melancholy, flickering memories and encounters between a family and their father, who will soon die.
The loss of the person, but also of the memory, is reflected from different perspectives - an attempt, on the one hand, to work against the disappearance and, on the other, to find a way of dealing with it.

A
cold
gap
in the ground
from the ground
beneath us
beneath our feet
and with our feet
we greet him
