 | Description: | LAIBACH have announced new album, Wir sind das Volk (ein Musical aus
Deutschland), due out on Mute on 25 March as a deluxe CD with
extensive sleeve notes, and digitally - with the double vinyl following on
10 June 2022.
The album collates music from the acclaimed theatrical production Wir
sind das Volk (â??We are the Peopleâ?), which premiered at Hebbel am Ufer
(HAU) theatre in Berlin on 8 Feb 2020. Two more shows were
performed, before the production was halted due to the pandemic. In
2021 Laibach opened the Klagenfurt Festival with a Slovenian version of
the same production and performed two more sold out shows in
Ljubljanaâ??s Kino Å iÅ¡ka. In March this year performances will resume in
Berlinâ??s HAU, with more confirmed for Zagreb, Ljubljana, Hamburg,
Maribor and in the Cultural Capital of Europe, Novi Sad.
Wir sind das Volk is based upon the writings of Heiner Müller (1929-
1995), one of the most significant German-speaking playwrights since
Brecht. Laibachâ??s own association with the theatre began in 1984 when
they composed music for Heiner Müllerâ??s Quartet, a play that was
presented at the Slovenian National Theatre in Ljubljana. The following
year they met Müller in Berlin, who suggested that they collaborate.
Müller went on to use Laibachâ??s music in a production but the
collaboration never happened, until the head of the International Heiner
Müller Society, Anja Quickert, proposed a posthumous project based on
Müllerâ??s texts. Laibach explain, â??We followed Heiner Müllerâ??s own
strategy of cutting and rearranging the material, taking his texts and
putting it into another context, rebooting it with music, in order to drag
the audience into it or alienate them from it. Music unlocks the
emotions and is therefore a great manipulative tool and a powerful
propagandistic weapon. And thatâ??s why a combination of Heiner Müller,
who saw theatre as a political institution, and Laibach, can be nothing
else but a musical.â? The albumâ??s artwork and inner sleeve is Epiphany II:
Adoration of the Shepherds (1998, collection of Fine Arts Museums of
San Francisco) and Epiphany I: Adoration of the Magi (1996, Denver Art
Museum collection) by the renowned Austrian-Irish artist, Gottfried
Helnwein. Taken from his Epiphany series, some of his most recognisable
works, the painting reflects on two of the central themes of his work:
childhood and National Socialism. Laibach have a knack for precision
timing and Wir sind das Volk is no exception. - Based on the writings of [a=Heiner Müller].
Released in a hardback CD book pack with a 44 page booklet featuring sleeve notes and imagery.
Title on [p. 5] of book: 'Wir sind das Volk: Ein Musical nach Texten von Heiner Müller'
