Index of 2008 season of Shakespeare Santa Cruz
From Act One, Scene Four and Five:
STEINDORFF Your understanding of politics is as nuanced as your music. KAUFFMAN Why, thank you! STEINDORFF A halfhearted show of diplomacy is the final step toward open war. |
Also from Act One, Scene Four and Five:
FASCH Why must everything have a name? SCHOTT So that we know which houses to burn. |
From Act One, Scene Six:
LENCK Do they have politics in Zerbst, Herr Fasch? FASCH Periodically, yes. But the tactics you describe are better suited to situations where ordinary principles are suspended. To a state of war. |
From Act Two, Scene One:
FASCH Kuhnau's explanation [of the fugue] mystified me. It was not until I wrote a fugue myself that I understood, and when I told him that the structure was now clear to me in retrospect, he remarked, 'Structure is only clear in retrospect'. |
From Act Two, Scene Two and Three and Four and Five:
GRAUPNER The odds are not yet ... ideal. SCHOTT What are you suggesting? GRAUPNER You overestimate my subtlety. I have not suggested it yet. It is true, is it not, that Kuhnau never named a preferred successor? SCHOTT No one, I think, was more surprised by Kuhnau's death than Kuhnau. |
