Adamâs Passion is the moving first collaboration between two âmasters of slow motion who harmonize perfectly with each otherâ (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). In the spectacular setting of a former submarine factory, American director and universal artist Robert Wilson creates a poetic visual world in which the mystical musical language of the Estonian composer Arvo PĂ€rt can cast its meditative spell. Three of PĂ€rtâs major works â Adamâs Lament, Tabula rasa, and Miserere, as well as Sequentia, a new work composed especially for this production â are brought together here using light, space, and movement to create a tightly-woven Gesamtkunstwerk in which the artistic visions of these two great artists mirror each other.
