Jessye Norman sings Franz Schubert's "Erlkönig".

The roominstallation is made by the austrian media artist Peter Kogler wich I adore, adore, adore...

It is from a film about the life of Jessye Norman, a true declaration of love by André Heller and Othmar Schmiderer.

  • as a German speaking person who has no problem with understanding this text, thanks to school also know that poem still by heart, her facial acting is actually quite fitting. I enjoyed watching and listening to her very much.

  • A powerful game and not comic play, I think she not overplays, it has evolved in these three characters and the narrator, she is a Goddess!!!
