Der Liebe zuliebe
Sometimes combative, sometimes contemplative, sometimes gentle – always passionate: This is how the audience knows and loves the poet and musician Konstantin Wecker. He is not only a gifted songwriter but also an important voice of an entire generation. An unyielding admonisher and fighter against war and fascism. With his songs and texts, he has advocated for justice and peace as well as a more mindful, loving coexistence for many decades.
Der Liebe zuliebe – a book about a lifelong search: for meaning, for the "more than everything," for the great mystery, for love, for paths to inner and outer peace. For Wecker, love is the key to making life succeed. And to making the world different, a better place.
In his new book, Konstantin Wecker does not shy away from dark times: depression, melancholy, alcoholism, drug-induced highs, numerous crashes, delusions, anger, sadness. He writes about a decades-long search and a turning point at the abyss. A moving book from one of the greatest song poets of our time, who continually inspires tens of thousands of fans to believe in the good and to stand up for what is good.
With his new stage program, Konstantin Wecker, together with Jo Barnikel (piano, keyboard) and Fany Kammerlander (cello), will intertwine his new book with his musical work in an exciting way and make Der Liebe zuliebe a unique experience; filled with music, poetry, mysticism – and love.
