Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode

 

Robin Rhode imagines Austrian composer Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung (Expectation) in Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode. In partnership with Performa15. Composed in 1909, Erwartung takes the unusual form of a one-act monodrama for a solo soprano, accompanied by a large orchestra. For Rhode, this atonal opera about love, loss, and lamentation, recalled the many hardships experienced by women in South Africa during and after the fall of Apartheid. Originally set in the moonlit, wilderness of the forest, Rhodeâs reproduction of Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode interprets Times Square itself to be a contemporary forest filled with light emanating from the electronic billboards instead of the moon. The performance takes place in a huge aria with just one soprano and non-speaking performer carrying out the opera, with the sights and sounds of Times Square acting as a Greek Chorus in the background.

A visit to Times Square on 05.29.16. It was supposed to be Manhattanhenge but it was too cloudy. Some photographers were having fun while waiting for the sun which was a no-show that day. I ended the day a block away fr Times Square, where I had a view of the Empire State Building lit in patriotic colors for the Memorial Day weekend.

01-14-15 Kind of fun when a meeting takes me on a walk through Times Square, though you do have to dodge a lot of Elmos. This billboard projects the people standing in front of it and is one of the most popular things there.
