Programme notes *: You don't hear it, you don't see it, but it is there and can make people seriously ill or even kill them: we are talking about nuclear radiation. The most impressive nuclear disasters were undoubtedly those in Chernobyl (26 April 1986) and Fukushima (March 2011). Can we imagine having to leave our homes forever because an accident has contaminated our land for centuries? Or should we - also for the protection of our children - begin to seriously rethink in the direction of renewable energies? The work Nuclear Power aims to stimulate these questions. It describes the greatest nuclear accidents of our time and switches at the end to a possible city of the future, where energy is produced in abundance by the sun, air and earth, without the deadly danger of a nuclear super-gaust. The composition was commissioned by the Musikverein Fluh near Bregenz (Austria). In the form of a musical message, the client wanted to express that the belief in a safe use of nuclear energy is probably the most fatal error of mankind. Quelle/Source: Otto M.
