Can you start with the fashionable appearance of a conductor? Here you should. The black in which Teodor Currentzis dresses can be traced back to the night, which is positively charged in “Tristan” as a contrast to the day with its lies and conventions. In terms of cultural history, we have turned away from seeing and turned to touch. The turning point began with Romanticism - and this is where Teodor Currentzis' view of art is also rooted. Instead of contemplation, he seeks surrender. And because in Currentzis' case the exterior is authenticated to the highest degree by the artistic results, we too have inferred the essence from the appearance and now expect a performance like nothing else from this world.
