In vocal music from the past the voice seems to be there and not there, as if wandering in an in-between realm, between “not yet” and “already gone”, between “not enough” and “too much”. Also there is a tendency to imagine an authentic voice of the past we have lost today. But what if the voice is not just historically lost, but always already structurally lost?

What if voices are always somehow disconnected from the bodies to which they seem to cling, what if voices are Fremdk\u00f6rper in themselves and at the same time simulators of bodies?
