Konstantin Wecker - Soundtrack meines Lebens

The new concert tour by Konstantin Wecker from October 4, 2024

A unique stage gala featuring film scores & songs by Konstantin Wecker.

This concert tour through Germany, Austria, and Switzerland is a heartfelt endeavor for the Munich musician, songwriter, poet, and film composer. On stage, Wecker will present a selection of his fantastic film scores from over 45 years, along with many of his greatest songs and musical melodies.

The opulent sound of the concerts will be provided, as with the celebrated Utopia tours, by the Konstantin Wecker Band with Jo Barnikel, Fany Kammerlander, Norbert Nagel, Jürgen Spitschka, and a surprise guest. The vision to make a selection of Konstantin Wecker's legendary film scores audible to many people on a grand tour arose from the unforgettable experience of the Munich Tollwood concert in the summer of 2023. This unforgettable experience also sparked the vision of taking a selection of his legendary film scores on a grand tour for many people to hear.

Wecker bows with his new stage program Der Soundtrack meines Lebens to famous actors and directors of the last five decades. His compositions are part of German film history. Konstantin Wecker (76) has shaped feature films, series, and popular television movies with his distinctive melodies: alongside Schtonk, one of the most successful German cinematic satires of all time, the cult series Kir Royal and film classics such as Die Weiße Rose, Peppermint Frieden, or television films like Liesl Karlstadt and Karl Valentin and Appolonia.

The audience can look forward to a unique evening: with unforgettable film scores and many Wecker songs, including Die weiße Rose, Erst seit du Abschied bist, Sage Nein, Tango Joe, and many more.

In addition, Konstantin Wecker will share stories about his life, his songs, and tales: about films, movie stars, and directors such as Margarethe von Trotta, Senta Berger, Mario Adorf, and the already deceased directing legends Helmut Dietl and Michael Verhoeven, for whom he composed his film scores and with whom he has written film history together.

The concerts Der Soundtrack meines Lebens (tour premiere on October 4 in Straubing) will delight cinema and film lovers as well as all Wecker fans.

The special Christmas sound of the Grammy-winning band blends perfectly with Carrack's irresistible voice and his Hammond organ.

At the center of the Swinging Christmas Show are Christmas classics like "Winter Wonderland" and "White Christmas," as well as Carrack's own hits: "The Living Years," "Over My Shoulder," or "How Long," which are a must in any show. In addition, there are songs from their joint album "Don't Wait Too Long."

Similar to the big bands in the USA, the SWR Big Band has its own sound. It got this sound from its founder and conductor Prof. Erwin Lehn. The starting shot was on April 1, 1951: At that time, the SWR Big Band was still called the South Radio Dance Orchestra. Lehn ensured that soon they were referred to as the "Daimler among the Big Bands." Because many stars shared the stage with them: Miles Davis, Chick Corea, Astrud Gilberto, Chet Baker, Caterina Valente, and Arturo Sandoval. Since the early 90s, the SWR Big Band has performed with different conductors - depending on the project and music style. Prof. Erwin Lehn retired. But his sound remained.

The combination of Paul Carrack with the SWR Big Band & Strings is simply the Christmas show at a world-class level in Germany. Those who try to turn on the sun in their hearts in the dark season will feel well taken care of at The Swinging Christmas Show.

Ferdinand von Schirach - REGEN - Zusatztermin

In a short period of time, the stage production REGEN by and with Ferdinand von Schirach has become one of the most visited new plays in the German-speaking world. The acclaim and demand have remained unbroken since the premiere, which is why the bestselling author is now adding numerous additional dates for 2024 and 2025 following his almost completely sold-out premiere tour.

In 2023, Ferdinand von Schirach's new book REGEN was published - entering directly at number 1 on the bestseller list. A narrative that Ferdinand von Schirach has been presenting as a monologue on stage since October 2023: a man comes drenched from the rain into a bar - onto the stage - and talks about the greatness and the horrors of our time, about human dignity, loneliness, love, loss, and failure.

REGEN is a bold and very personal piece, a play on the border between stage character and author. Directed by Elmar Goerden.

Der Spiegel called Ferdinand von Schirach a "great storyteller," The New York Times an "extraordinary stylist," The Independent compared him to Kafka and Kleist, The Financial Times to Raymond Carver, and The Daily Telegraph wrote that he is "one of the most distinctive voices in European literature." His books have been adapted into films multiple times and have sold millions of copies internationally. They have been published in more than forty countries. His plays Terror and God are among the most successful and discussed dramas worldwide today.

"If the word 'cultivated' didn't exist, it would have to be invented for Ferdinand von Schirach."

Martin Suter & Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre - "Kein Grund, gleich so rumzuschreien"

"No Reason to Yell Like That"

They're back! The circumstances of life may be serious, but the authors are not. "No Reason to Yell Like That," the new conversation book by Martin Suter and Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, will be released at the end of October by Diogenes Verlag and can be experienced live starting December 14th on only a few of the big stages in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
"Fast, clever, and incredibly funny, like a dinner with Thomas Bernhard, Ricky Gervais, and the Rolling Stones." - Ferdinand von Schirach
The rare joint appearances of these two bestselling authors are not only exclusive rarities due to the limited number of dates - the way they present, staging the show with a brilliantly unpredictable spontaneity, turns the text into something completely different.
With Martin Suter and Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, there are always surprises live. In Berlin, for example, there was the surprising appearance of the wonderful Danger Dan, in Hamburg, Linda Zervakis and Caren Miosga read a chapter from the previous book "Everyone Has Gotten So Serious," and in Cologne, Suter and Stuckrad-Barre entertained themselves and the enthusiastic audience with Karl Lauterbach and Tommi Schmitt.
The Rolling Stone magazine celebrated the seemingly mismatched pair for their appearances as "literary rock stars."
