Decadence, squalor, derangement and nihilism proliferate as Art is ambushed by urbanized, industrial society and composers turn to social commentary.

A night of desperate satire, sensuous whimsy and bitter irony with Pulse, presenting songs, chansons, lieder and schläger by Satie, Schoenberg, Eisler, Weill, Cage, Hannan, Fokkens and Crane.
