IN THE HOTHOUSE Print

After graduating from the conservatory, at the final exam I sang one song from Wagner's cycle “Wesendonk-lieder”, and since then I dreamed of performing the whole cycle as a whole, and later I had the idea to write a picture for each song, I made my dream come true in 2019! 3. In the hothouse High-vaulted crowns of leaves, Canopies of emerald, You children of distant zones, Tell me, why do you lament? Silently you bend your branches, Draw signs in the air, And the mute witness to your anguish - A sweet fragrance - rises. In desirous longing, wide You open your arms, And embrace through insane predilection The desolate, empty, horrible void. I know well, poor plants, A fate that we share, Though we bathe in light and radiance, Our homeland is not here! And how gladly the sun departs From the empty gleam of the day, He veils himself, he who suffers truly, In the darkness of silence. It becomes quiet, a whispered stirring Fills uneasily the dark room: Heavy drops I see hovering On the green edge of the leaves.
