The “Zonnhaider” is a mirror for the protagonists, which makes up different stories, dreams, emotions and realities and embraces them. It collects, develops and expresses. A spirit which mediates between oblivion and presence, dreams and their counter dreams, love and hatred and which carries real-to-be desired child stories in itself and unites them with adult cruelty. Through this figure The Zonnhaider’s Club (Martin Ketelhut and Christopher Schön) try to narrate, to sing and to move.

Musically the songs walk in slow motion through those many places of “The Forthcoming Spring”. In the wide tension curves the dreamy and warm sounds are wrecked only seldom by eruptions and if then those soon collapse and vanish. An army crowd of instruments braid themselves, delightful and melancholic tunes come out, disappear again – and two voices are confronted: One bright and clear, the other urgently deep. They escort the listener through the fog.

The chapter “The Forthcoming Spring” broaches the issue of a floating condition between the Here and Now and a time or a place which one longs for in vain.
