Looking back, the sheer scale of the organisational and instrumental challenges involved in staging this work can still make one\u2019s head spin \u2026 but naivety and a certain lack of experience can sometimes be a blessing: the master himself was pleased!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this work, Henze created a new form of lieder recital. It is still &#8211; or rather, once again &#8211; very up to date, particularly due to his choice of texts! Originating from Henze&#8217;s biography of his early years, which he spent in a fascist-influenced home, the work is above all rooted in his political and social commitment and the associated attitude that determined his life to the end. He achieved his goal of &#8220;writing political songs with means that go beyond what Eisler, Weill and Dessau had achieved&#8221;!   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alice Lackner<\/strong>, mezzo-soprano<br><strong>Paul Curievici<\/strong>, tenor<br><strong>ensemble unitedberlin<\/strong><br><strong>Christoph Breidler<\/strong>, conductor<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>sponsored by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/B_SEN_KuGZ_Logo_DE_H_PW_RGB-1-scaled.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4303\" style=\"aspect-ratio:5.995004076149397;width:641px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/B_SEN_KuGZ_Logo_DE_H_PW_RGB-1-scaled.png 2560w, https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/B_SEN_KuGZ_Logo_DE_H_PW_RGB-1-768x128.png 768w, https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/B_SEN_KuGZ_Logo_DE_H_PW_RGB-1-1536x256.png 1536w, https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/B_SEN_KuGZ_Logo_DE_H_PW_RGB-1-2048x342.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"188\" height=\"196\" src=\"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/logo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4511\" style=\"width:127px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3748,"template":"","class_list":["post-4341","konzert","type-konzert","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/konzert\/4341","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/konzert"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/konzert"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/unitedberlin.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4341"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
