"In the Burrow. 15 Sound Spaces after Franz Kafka" is a contemporary opera by Michel Roth. The stage version was premiered in 2012 at Lucerne Festival and Theater Basel. The libretto is based on Franz Kafka's novel "Der Bau" ("In the Burrow"). In 2017, on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Music-Academy Basel, a radio opera version of the work was created, recorded as a course through 53 room constellations on the campus of the Music-Academy. A interactive website (with 3D/binaural rendering) documents the unusual production process and invites to undertake your own explorations of the "burrow": through the work and through the rooms of the Musik-Akademie Basel.
