Symptom: Child is a theatre – concert in four scenes inspired by children´s songs composed by Liadov, Musorgskij, Stravinskij, Schumann and Brahms. Robert Schumann described his piano composition Scenes from Childhood, which is also performed in this project, as a retrospective reflection of an adult for adult.  The irresponsibility of the child’s stage of life in the 19th century was liken to an immediate and a capricious nature. Natural scenery was one of the main themes for the art of that time.  Child´s naturalness and perspective have bocome an ideal state, which should be achieved by adult´s  desire to reach the best.

What kind of escapes a modern human being is looking for? What does it mean to play a game?
