Eva Sommestad Holten Alma Mahler - a theatre concert |
|||
| - The composer, the seductress and the phenomenon. Including songs by Alma Mahler and Gustav Mahler, see list.* |
|||
| Alma is the ambitious, inspired and erotically longing young girl, who is suddenly confronted with harsh realities and transformed to the very controversial persona, that continues to trigger debate. Her songs, like a blueprint of her feelings, are in the center of the storyline, as are Gustav Mahler’s. The script has a special reference to the degrading theories on the female sex, that imbued Vienna at the time - facing the young Alma at the very onset of her career. Strong and talented women are still treated and judged in quiet another way than men. For anyone who takes an interest in, why women still in large numbers drop their ambitions and passions, the super talented Alma Mahler continues to be a must - exploring the challenges she met. |
