About Feindschaftsverweigerung
Krysztof Daletski’s Feindschaftsverweigerung is a powerful secular Lieder for SATB choir, setting a German text that speaks directly to the consequences of division and mistrust between nations. The lyrics describe a world where communication is stifled by restrictive policies, where justice is narrowly defined, and where rhetoric about values masks underlying interests. In such times, the text urges caution against internal divisions and a resolute refusal of enmity. The refrain, powerfully stating "We refuse to be enemies" in German, French, English, and Esperanto, underscores a universal plea for understanding and connection across borders.
