Jiří Kadeřábek's Don Hamburger in Czech version, performed by the composer and the Berg Orchestra under the conductor Peter Vrábel, at the Roxy Club, Prague, on November 4, 2010. * * * Jiří Kadeřábek: Don Hamburger (2010) Why so-called great piece of art has to be related to the most important human questions? Is greatness of a piece determined rather by the ideas behind it than the piece itself? How comes that a car or an iron, located at the right place in a gallery of modern art, can provoke more questions and emotions, than a piece of art trying to artistically describe something? How does pop art work? As an example can serve Mozart's operas, often not great at their profound librettos, but yet alive -- thanks to their excellent music. And why not to compose a piece about food in fastfood -- hamburger, fries and cola? Short, light and agile piece, which I have been wishing to compose for a long time already? Preparation for the banquet in the second movement of Don Giovanni is a wonderful starting point for that. English lyrics: Once I came to MacDonald. Did you have nice afternoon? Did you have good and enough food? I had everything I wanted! I can tell you what I had! So what was that? Just wait! I ordered a hamburger. Did you have fries? Of course I did! Why do you eat such a greasy stuff? What you mean? What is the point? I can't tell you anything else than. Than what, tell me! I just love it! Then I went to the bathroom.
