The Theater der Welt invited Station House Opera to create a monumental concrete block project beside Dresden's famous Frauenkirche which had been destroyed by the British during the war and was in the process of being rebuilt. The title is how Kurt Schwitters deconstructed and rebuilt Dresden's name in his sound sonata 'Ursonate'.
