Tsippi Fleischer has been invited to participate in
the festival "Musik Unserer Zeit 2012" at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster and is travelling to Germany to participate in this
festive event, produced by the Musikhochschule Münster (the
University's Music Academy), which will take place on 20-25 May.
The festival will present the world-premiere stage production of
her new work
The Animals' Wish, featuring acting, pantomime
and dance, in two performances – one by children, the other by students
from the Music Academy. The Festival will include a performance
of a new German version of Fleischer's song-cycle
Girl-Butterfly-Girl,
as well as many of her solo and chamber works. The composer will
also present a lecture on her video-art composition
Daniel in
the Den of Lions.
The composer Tsippi Fleischer embarks this month on a European tour, to record the world premiere of two new versions of her song cycle
Girl-Butterfly-Girl – for a chamber ensemble and for an orchestral ensemble. These versions will open up a new path in the continuous world journey of this song cycle, which had already received numerous versions and performances.
During this tour, she will also be taking part in several meetings in Europe, in preparation for an English-language production of
Oasis. Last month, this opera's premiere production received the Linz-Papageno International Award for children's operas; it was awarded the first prize, having competed with dozens of children's operas from around the globe.
From now on (January 10, 2012),
all of Tsippi Fleischer's albums are available freely for listening

pages - from the LP "Music
for Small Ensembles" (1986), specially digitised for this website
after years of being unavailable, and up to the new

the composer's works, composed in 2009-2010.
The children's opera
Oasis
(libretto: Yael Medini), which illuminates the world of the children
of Sinai during the Exodus, has now received a superb world-premiere

production
last year in Germany). The new CD (VMM 4007) also includes the world
premiere recordings of two more works:
Moderna
and
Erasure
. For details, see
