Music meets Literature: The Tell-Tale Heart

The content on this page was translated automatically.

As part of a university seminar at the Hamburg University of Music and Drama, "Music meets Literature" is an interdisciplinary pilot project that closely interlinks concert format, reading and stage aesthetics. The focus is on Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" as an atmospheric reading with specially composed music - a live radio play of oppressive density. Dark and macabre soundscapes, pulsating heartbeats and suspenseful pauses form an interplay of harmony and dissonance. Denny Seidel reads, accompanied by piano, bass and drums; the compositions are by Jacob Eckert and Mario Kolbe, with Lu Haohzuo on drums.
