About Die neoliberale Litanei
Krzysztof Daletski’s Die neoliberale Litanei is a secular work for SATB choir, sung in German. The text, opening with a roll-call of economists and politicians associated with neoliberalism, critiques its perceived dominance. The choir responds with a chorus that translates to 'There is no alternative,' 'without alternative,' and 'no other way,' reinforcing the idea of imposed economic dogma. The piece continues to praise the market’s supposed self-regulating power and advocates for privatization, turning citizens into consumers. This setting offers a potent, critical commentary suitable for a choir seeking challenging, politically-charged repertoire.
