Giuseppe Verdi draws in his Messa da Requiem in an overwhelming and touching wayman's struggle with his destiny. As in his operas, his only funeral mass focuses on emotions; the music conjures up feelings of fear, anger, sadness and the desire for redemption and liberation, but also the hope for a new beginning.
Based on Verdi's score, Krystian Lada understands the Requiem as a work for the living. In his scenic version, the Polish director creates a world between life and death, in which man is judged. It is not a divine instance that is the judge, but the human being himself: A decisive situation in life, in which one has loaded oneself with guilt, is remembered, lived through and judged. The experience of judging oneself becomes a liberating blow.
Krystian Lada, who most recently delighted audiences in St.Gallen with his interpretation of Catán's Florencia en el Amazonas , performs the work across genres with members of the dance company, the drama and music theater ensembles.
