  1. Erstaunlich, wie sehr der Teufel Musikerinnen und Musikern Freude bereitet. Das meiste hier klingt wirklich beschwingt bis fröhlich. Wiegen wir uns damit nicht vielleicht in falscher Sicherheit? Oder ist die alte Dualität zwischen Gut und Böse inzwischen so märchenhaft geworden, dass wir sie nicht mehr Ernst nehmen können und müssen?
