Philipp Hochmair & Streichquartett Sonare Linz
What's it about?
Eichendorff's 'Taugenichts' (Good-for-Nothing) becomes a lively journey through German Romanticism: a young dreamer sets out into the world with his violin, encounters love, temptation, and divine providence, and finds happiness in being on the move. The story is musically embraced with great music from German Romanticism by Felix Mendelssohn and his sister Fanny, wanderer motifs by Franz Schubert, Viennese and Italian dance music. Original songs from the novella emphasize the events. :::Original production of the MusikSommer Bad Schallerbach::: Cast: Philipp Hochmair - Recitation Peter Gillmayr - 1st Violin Kathrin Lenzenweger - 2nd Violin Christoph Lenz - Viola Judith Bik - Cello Based on the novella "Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts" (From the Life of a Good-for-Nothing) by Joseph von Eichendorff (1788-1856) from 1826: "If I am a good-for-nothing, then that is good; I want to go into the world and make my happiness." A miller sends his son, whom he calls a good-for-nothing because he leaves all the work to him, out into the wide world. Cheerfully, the son takes his violin and leaves his village without a clear destination. Driven by wanderlust, he travels via Vienna to Italy and then back to Germany. Along the way, he encounters peculiar companions and his great love. This is the main work of German late Romanticism, first fully published exactly 200 years ago (1826), dealing among other things with the contrast between moralizing philistines and "lazy" artists. While Goethe's "Italian Journey" was a conscious act of observation and self-formation, Eichendorff's work is a programmatic non-perception. In deliberate distance from the Protestant idea of a God only testified through words, Eichendorff lets the hero experience God's grace directly through nature, the course of the journey, and biographical coincidence, with temptation scenes (seduction, sensuality, Italian milieu) demonstratively ending not in sin but in unwavering trust in God and moral integrity.
