Songs have marked his life - for over 50 years. For Konstantin Wecker, this is reason enough to reflect on the past decades in countless performances in a wonderful way for himself and his audience. With the new chamber music program “Songs of My Life,” the Munich musician, composer, and author presents his personal poetic highlights from the beginnings to the present day together with his pianist and long-time companion Jo Barnikel.
Among them will be classics like “When Summer is Not Far Away,” the song “Willy” written in the 70s, “Anger and Tenderness,” “Sometimes I Cry a Lot,” as well as “The Lunatics” from his very first LP “The Sadopoetic Songs of Konstantin Amadeus Wecker.”
The audience can also look forward to one or two surprises with almost forgotten songs. One thing has always been true for the passionate pacifist and committed anti-fascist: “In my songs, I have always allowed my fragility, my vulnerability.” In doing so, he has always found himself - and thus his followers, for whom his lines have always been an inspiration. And still are. They can all expect an evening that encourages songs and poems, whose power will shape our lives for many years to come.
