concept, lyrics, performance, recording by Barbara Kinga Majewska, premiered at w brzask in Muzeum Rzeźby im. Xawerego Dunikowskiego Królikarnia in Warsaw
based on Franz Schubert Der Doppelgänger from the LiederzyklusSchwanengesang, D 957
Simultaneous presence of singers' two voices and of a double-voiced singer. The Singer and the Doppelsänger appear to sing in a mutual consent. Appearence of a performing double is not a ghostly phenomenon that predicts ones death but clearly audible ultimate duet. Hence the song that is being sung is the last one - the swan song. And the lyriscs say - Only you are missing.
