Werkkommentar:
The arabic word Tāriq describes with its meaning two metaphors, which are important for my understanding of music as an art form. First, it describes a night visitor – a person, who knocks unexpectedly late at night at ones door. This moment of the abrupt, unexpected, shock and exaggeration are important for my music. The second meaning is: the penetrative, shrill star. Nietzsche said that an artist has to have chaos inside of him to create a dancing star (Thus Spoke Zarathustra). To create this utopian dancing shrill star is my aim.
