Informationen
'Hamlet-Echos' comes from the full-length opera 'Hamlet' in which Christian Jost interprets Shakespeare's tragedy as 'story of a surreal journey inward'. By having Hamlet sing in a female voice, Jost emphasizes the universal validity of this statement. The intentional bilingualism stands for Hamlet's inner dialogue in which the viola part joins commentating.
