Oper nach einer wahren Geschichte. Wie nahe kommen wir einem Menschen durch dessen Stimme? Ein wahrer Kriminalfall um einen Soldaten auf einem US-Stützpunkt in Australien während des Zweiten Weltkriegs ist der Ausgangspunkt der Oper Voice Killer, die der tschechische Komponist Miroslaw Srnka für das MusikTheater an der Wien komponiert. Besessen von der Stimme seiner Mutter, die ihm Kinderlieder vorsang, suchte dieser Soldat jene vergeblich bei Frauen, denen er zufällig begegnete. Drei Australierinnen fielen dem psychisch kranken Serienmörder zum Opfer, bevor er gefasst wurde.

Deutsch

How close does a person’s voice bring us to them? A real-life criminal case involving a soldier at a US army base in Australia during World War II is the starting point of the opera Voice Killer that the Czech composer Miroslaw Srnka is writing for the MusikTheater an der Wien. Obsessed by the voice of his mother who used to sing him nursery rhymes, the soldier vainly searched for it among women who happened to cross his path. Three Australian women fell victim to the mentally ill serial killer before he was caught. Srnka and his librettist Tom Holloway, whose operas South Pole, Singularity and Make No Noise received their premieres at the Bayerische Staatsoper, are primarily interested in the women who attracted the murderer’s attention solely on account of their voices. They follow the main character’s schizophrenic stream of consciousness, turning the criminal case into a flow of events in which time periods and locations constantly shift. Each murder triggers a new level of escalation until events start to come thick and fast: arrest, trial and execution all become one and the murderer’s victims become his defence counsels.
