Royal Festival Hall
My Heart is on Fire, conceived as a classical song cycle, uses poetry from Messer (Knives) by Till Lindemann (lead singer of rock band Rammstein, for which some of the lyrics were written). Lindemann's poems are inspired by nineteeth-century authors Rückert and Rimbaud and express the kind of emotions, such as profoundly wounding love and loss, that contemporary writers avoid in honour of our age of glossy enjoyment and aversion to pain.
Martin features on Duduk in the evocative movement Sehnsucht at the Royal Festival Hall.
