Alex Nowitz: "Die Bestmannoper oder der Versuch,
mit Mitteln eines grotesken Musiktheaters eine historische Lücke zu schließen"
at the Villa la Collina in Cadenabbia, Italy
['The opera on the best man' or the attempt to fill a historical gap by means of a grotesque opera] Alex Nowitz talks about his first opera 'Die Bestmannoper' premiered in 2006 at the Theatre Osnabrueck shedding light on the scandal that NAZI criminal and mass murderer Alois Brunner, best man of Adolf Eichmann, was never brought to court although his hideout was well-known: Damaskus, Rue Haddad 13, under the protection of the Assad regime. The antagonist in the opera was built on French lawyer Serge Klarsfeld.
The lecture is part of the Fellowship Workshop Cadenabbia with the motto “(Kunst) Geschichte wiederholt sich (nicht)” — (Art) History repeats itself (not) — organized by Dr. Hans-Jörg Clement and the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung.
Die Bestmannoper has been created by Alex Nowitz (music composition) and Ralph Hammerthaler (libretto).

26 – 28 October 2023: 19:00 (introduction) | 20:00 (concert):
DESIGNING VOICES—International Festival for Vocal Performance Art, Sound & Music: "Vokalaktionen"
The second edition of the festival presents vocal performance artists and musicians with an unparalleled, unique approach to sound the human voice. This year's motto is "Vokalaktionen". Consisting of the composer-performers TONE ÅSE (NO), FRANZISKA BAUMANN (CH), ALEX NOWITZ (DE) & STEN SANDELL (SE), the vocal quartet operadicals opens the festival at the PARETZ Akademie with "Vokalaktionen 1" and closes it at the Französische Kirche POTSDAM with "Vokalaktionen 2". Presenting themselves in solo up to quartet formations, they also create beautifully atmospheric vocal landscapes in the form of choral miniatures that they develop together with singers mainly from two local choirs, the Ketziner Havelklänge & Salto Tonale. This will be supported by live composing practices, such as 'soundpainting', a gesture-based, musical sign language that SABINE VOGEL (DE) applies to introduce contemporary vocal practices to the choral singers. At the heart of the festival is the long night of the peculiar voices Die lange Nacht der kuriosen Stimmen, supported by and taking place at the fabrik POTSDAM, featuring ISABELLE DUTHOIT (FR), KATIA GUEDES (BR/DE), CARL-LUDWIG HÜBSCH (DE), ALEX NOWITZ (DE), CHRISTOPH REISERER (DE) and RICHARD SCOTT (UK/DE) all of whom present themselves as soloists until they enter into a compelling dialogue with one another.
Funded by the Ministry for Science, Research and Culture (MWFK) of the Land Brandenburg and the City of Potsdam (Landeshauptstadt Potsdam), DESIGNING VOICES 2023 partners with the fabrik POTSDAM, the PARETZ Akademie and the Französische Kirche POTSDAM, further with the Netzwerk Neue Musik des Landes Brandenburg, Field-Notes Berlin, Positionen (Texte für aktuelle Musik) and the Rathaus Ketzin.
