In Mahler's body of songs no less than in his nine symphonies, this inner conflict thrusts itself upon the audience with existential urgency: each song marks a way-station along a road that leads from the romantic idylls of the "Wunderhorn" via the familial intimacy of the "Rückert–Lieder" to the contemplative outlook of Far Eastern lyricism in the "Lied von der Erde". In their first production at the Deutsche Oper Berlin; Nico and the Navigators tackle the cosmos of Mahler's songs in an evening of poetical and physical expression that endeavours to distil this sifting of senses for the stage. For Nico and the Navigators this Mahler project represents not only another excursion into musical theatre but also the beginning of a sustained collaboration with the opera house.
