about

In Franui’s adaptation, the folk song heritage is subjected to a constant transformation and joined together in ever new combinations. Verses whole and half, melodies and lines of text find each other in the midst of a well-ordered chaos. Some of the pieces, though, simply refuse to be changed.

These Brahms Folk Songs were first performed as a staged concert at the 2008 Bregenz Festival. The title of the show, “Nur ein Gesicht” – “Only one face”, is the abridged version of a line out of one of the songs – Nur ein Gesicht auf Erden lebt – and, like Franui’s music, possesses a delightful ambiguity: One’s face is something to be saved under any circumstances. On the face of it, though, it may be no more than a mere aspect, an image, a reflection. Yet only one.
