De temporum fine comoedia

About the show

In this three-part mystery play about the end of time, the Sibyls foretell judgment, the Anchorites contemplate the end of the world, and Dies illa depicts its destruction. After worldly existence has ended, Lucifer asks forgiveness and is restored as an angel. The work concludes with Bach’s Vor deinen Thron tret ich hiermit, presented in a canon and its mirror image.
