In Galgenlieder à 3, Christian Morgenstern’s whimsical Galgenlieder merge brilliantly with the haunting musical language of Sofia Gubaidulina. This unique song cycle, consisting of voice, percussion and double bass, brings Morgenstern’s playful and surreal poetry to life. Gubaidulina’s composition captures the essence of each poem through various expressive techniques, from normal singing to whispering and chanting. With imaginative interludes and an inventive use of motifs and intervals, this work offers a fresh and captivating interpretation of Morgenstern’s celebrated verse.
