In nicht Ichts - nicht Nichts, Heinz Holliger has set the words of ten selected mystic epigrammes by the seventeenth century Baroque poet Angelus Silesius. The two-line sayings in rhyming Alexandrines undertake a profound exploration of metaphysical issues, posing questions such as What is life, eternity, space and time and the nature of God?
