To have control over something matterless, we control it with the knowledge about it and thus gain power over it. the almost sinister thought “I'll tell you. You're young, but you're one of us, and I'm one of us, so I'll tell you.” gives the Toxic Psalms its tone. For in the background of the whole concert arch death utters and murderous plague intones. Through the music the project reflects Palestine, Syria, Pussy Riots, weapons, concentration camps, blood feuds, extinctions, contaminations of religions and creates a picture of huMan brutality. the living of a Man is changed into a drama here and now: men killing for the glory of their psalms. the author’s poise is not one of an agitator – awaking the feeling that “something has to be done” – it is rigorously contemplative.

So I thought: it's about time I brought the ideas together :-)

What I have included is the alternation of minor and major modes so typical of habaneras.
