Peter Schindler on "Fahr zu, o Mensch!":
"In this short recitative, the soloist belts out the last four lines of the poem "Im Eisenbahnhofe", which Justinus Kerner wrote in 1851. It is a lament for the disenchantment of nature by technology that was felt at the time. Almost prophetically, it is also addressed to our time. The sobering final perspective makes it clear that every human attempt to soar high into the air like Icarus ultimately leads no further "than the tomb"."
Peter Schindler’s full-length secular choral work "Sonne, Mond und Sterne" (Sun, Moon and Stars) narrates a love story based on 'old' texts which are given a new interpretation through these musical settings. Some individual numbers were published in spring, and now more movements with piano accompaniment are available in print and digitally.
