‘Unheard of! What a sound! Extremely exciting,’ wrote Anton Webern to Arnold Schönberg in November 1928 about his setting of Friede auf Erden after the poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. ‘It all sounds like something from another world. And - I don't think anyone will be able to escape the effect. - You are knocked to the ground with clubs and then lifted to the highest heights on angels‘ parakeets,’ wrote Gustav Mahler about his Symphony No. 2. Everything comes together in this music: Folk song and high literature, childlike faith and metaphysical speculation. In both works, it is the hope for a better world that comes to the fore in this programme and is needed today more than ever.
