DESCRIPTION:
Samstag aus Licht - Luzifers Tanz - mit theatralischer Schlussvariante

Third scene of the opera SATURDAY from LIGHT, for bass voice, piccolo trumpet, piccolo flute / stilt dancer, ballet (or mimes) / wind orchestra (symphonic band) of ca. 80 players

"If you, Man, have never learned from LUCIFER
how the spirit of contradiction and independence
distorts the expression of the face,
how brow can dance versus brow,
-- eye versus eye,
cheek versus cheek,
nose versus cheek,
lip versus nose,
tongue versus lip
and chin versus tongue --
you cannot turn your countenance in harmony
towards the LIGHT."
