A fiction for agents and keyboard instruments based on motifs by W. A. Mozart
By Johannes Müller, Philine Rinnert and Tobias Schwencke

Modern structures of power are fundamentally based on secrets and concealment, espionage, disinformation and treachery. Surveillance and spying are indispensable instruments of government techniques, warfare and information retrieval. "Intrigo internazionale (KV 492)" deals with intelligence services and their techniques of invading privacy. Johannes Müller, Philine Rinnert and Tobias Schwencke take a look at international intrigue and the hunt for a mysterious suitcase: are the romantic connections between the agents strictly related to business or means to an end to gain or block information, harden or change fronts? One absurd disclosure follows another and everyone is nothing less but a double-agent for his own and a higher cause.

With Kirsten Burger/Diane Busuttil, Jill Emerson, Hauke Heumann, Laura Nicorescu/Herdís Anna Jónasdóttir, Eun Hye Jung, Il Hong/Ezra Jung and Todd Boyce/Wieland Lemke.
