    • In his four-part song cycle, Wilfried Hiller sets various poems by Rainer Maria Rilke to music which were published between 1906 and 1913. Hiller chose the pieces according to their dramatic effect: The content they share is the awareness of topics like loneliness, death and loss; however, neither the texts nor his composition reflect feelings of utter hopelessness. The songs were premiered at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts in 2010.
