synopsis
The form of the work is unique: a series of 22 songs for tenor and piano, with an addition of three songs in the middle for a small choir of women and a mezzosoprano representing the gypsy girl Zefka. Ivo van Hove directs top singers Ed Lyon, Peter Gijsbertsen and Marie Hamard, and TA actors Hugo Koolschijn and Gijs Scholten van Aschat. Fascinated by voices, Belgian composer Annelies Van Parys writes a coda to this touching love story.
