„when the music is over / melt in peace“ presents us with two human-sized figures made of ice, standing bent over two snare drums with frozen drumsticks, two music stands in front of them. The melting ice now drips onto the differently tuned snare drums until the drumsticks and whole limbs begin to come loose. This work is a “predicted composition”, as Trobollowitsch himself says. The outcome of the piece is predictable. It is “a march to the tactless end — man melts, silence remains”.
