Grenzganger, Die
Holderlin
In the years following the French Revolution, Holderlin's poems celebrate freedom as a condition of all life. Gossiping
the highs and lows of life in a verbose manner and with fine nibs, Holderlin wrote in a language that is still modern
today about suffering from the "leaden time", which freezes everything alive, about the longing for love and beauty and
the certainty that man is inherently good.
On their eleventh album, Holderlin's verses are congenially transforming verses into songs that have spanned the
centuries since their creation. Between "Zorniger Sehnsucht", "Stupidity" and "So I came under the Germans", the
fourteen selected Holderlin texts are sometimes astonishingly up-to-date, with music between blues and folk rock, pop
and e-music, with hints of Kurt Weill's three-penny opera , Tom Waits, Eisler and Motown.
