Oberons Lamentation
Oberon’s Lamentation, or Five Years On for baritone and string quartet, projects the emotional clashes and confusions of Shakespeare’s well-known comedy A Midsummer Night’s Dream into a new fictional, near future. The piece examines how the characters’ inner worlds have developed a few years after the events of the night in terms of how they think, act and feel.
In this music video, the song of the same name by Valentin Ruckebier, a student in Prof. Oliver Schneller’s composition class, is given a new interpretational dimension through Yannick Benavides’s audiovisual implementation and design. The music video becomes his own work. An extensive team of IMM students was involved in the production, which was written as a thesis in the upper-level Music and Audiovisual Production module with Prof. Enrique Sánchez Lansch from October 2018 to April 2019.
