A musical evening with a mermaid and her sailor. Together they sing about the sea, love and longing.
More sea -
or Undine is possible.
Water women appear in the form of sirens, mermaids, nymphs, melusines, the Loreley, the foam-born Venus and as Undines.
They are an endless river and a huge variety of these women from the sea who flow through literature, music and art history.
The woman as a roaring, playing, cooling sea, as a raging torrent, as a waterfall, as boundless waters through which the ships drift with all their longing sailors.
It is said that these women only receive a soul through the unconditional love of a man.
They bring death to an unfaithful lover!
And now such a woman from the sea, an undine, meets a sailor...
They begin with the beginning:
"Guten Abend"
"Guten Abend"
"Wie weit ist es zu dir?"
"Weit ist es, weit."
"Und weit ist es zu mir."
A song recital with texts from "Undine geht" by Ingeborg Bachmann and songs by Element of crime, Freddy Quinn and France Gall with Johannes Winde as the music-making sailor and Agnes Mann as the singing, speaking Undine.
