Gustav Rudolf Sellner: Self
Quotes

Gustav Rudolf Sellner : The one thing that I'm terribly stuck on is the whole idea that this play offers the first opportunity to transplant an antique tragedy with its entire content into the present, namely through the medium of music. That was entirely new to me, and it is an enormous experience for me beyond the engagement with the tragedy itself. With music you can do really everything, you can create these double and triple meanings, quadruple meanings, you can put everything in there, like into a fugue, and that's why it will be so difficult to interpret.
