A reflection around a “To be sung without...” using the example of five songs of the 20th century
How to understand, how to follow John Cage’s instruction “to be sung without vibrato, as in folk-singing”? What risks do singers face when choosing a “singing without..”, a singing “without”? What is it that takes the place of this emptiness, what other singing emerges? These are the questions that singer Marianne Schuppe raises, listening to five songs of the 20th century.
