Peter Orloff & Schwarzmeer-Kosaken Chor - Total Emotional - Jubiläumstournee
Finally! The "Jungle King of Hearts" back on tour!
THE VOLGA SONG - Peter Orloff & the Schwarzmeer Kosaken are coming
Finally, the time has come again! After the most successful year in its history, the Schwarzmeer Kosaken Chor followed its history-making year with the longest concert break after the closing concert on March 8th of this year. But now, it's finally time for the Schwarzmeer Kosaken Chor and its audience to continue! And in close cooperation with local authorities and the event organizer's Corona commissioner, it is set to be a carefree concert experience. Medicine for the soul and a feast for the ears!
An absolute highlight is the festive concert of the famous Schwarzmeer Kosakens-Chor, under the musical direction and personal participation of Peter Orloff, who once, as the youngest singer of all Cossack choirs in the world - back then, by the way, together with Ivan Rebroff - founded his legendary career in the Schwarzmeer Kosaken Chor and is now celebrating his 60th stage anniversary.
From the young boy with the already sensational voice emerged the pop legend Peter Orloff, the "King of the Charts" with 19 chart listings of his own and numerous Gold Records, including as a singer for "A Girl Forever" and the "Queen of the Night," as a lyricist for Bernd Clüver's "Junge mit der Mundharmonika," and as a composer for "You," Peter Maffay's biggest hit to this day, which is now also sung by Helene Fischer, as well as Andrea Berg and even the Amigos singing the million-hit "Der kleine Prinz" composed and written by Peter Orloff. In addition to Peter Maffay and Bernd Clüver, he also produced Heino, Freddy Quinn, and Julio Iglesias, among others. In the history of the ZDF Hitparade, he has the second best rate of re-entries of all time for artists with the most appearances after Chris Roberts.
The whole of Germany was captivated when Peter Orloff reached the finale of the jungle camp in 2019 and became the jungle prince and sweetheart of the audience. Unforgettable is his fearless balancing act at dizzying heights and his loving interaction with snakes and crocodiles. The press titles him as "Better than Crocodile Dundee" and "Chuck Norris of the Jungle," and for Germany's largest daily newspaper, Peter Orloff is the "Jungle King of Hearts."
Upon his return, his top hit from 1971, "A Girl Forever," was already in the 2019 version at number 7 on the German iTunes Schlager charts. He donates a school for indigenous children in Argentina from his fee - his second school for the "Fly & Help" foundation, of which he is a member of the board and ambassador. Thanks to "RTL - Wir helfen Kindern," there are already five schools!
On June 19, 2019, his CD "Teure Heimat" with the Schwarzmeer Kosaken Chor stormed to number 2 on the official German sales charts for folk music behind Santiano and ahead of Andreas Gabalier - 52 years after his first top ranking in the sales charts, also at number 2, back then behind Peter Alexander and ahead of the Beatles! In the year-end evaluation, the album is among the TOP 20! On December 4, he even climbed into the absolute elite class, the Top 100 Album Charts, multiple times in 2019 and 2020. He is the most googled man of the year! And the oldest "Ninja Warrior" participant of all time worldwide! On January 12, 2020, he received two coveted SMAGO Awards, the German "Schlager-Oscar", one for the "Schlager Titan" and one for the chart topper and "Jungle King of Hearts". At 75, Peter Orloff is once again at a peak in his career. Therefore, one of his personal favorite songs is his life motto: "Forever Young"!
Impressive press reviews from then to now document the exceptional position that Peter Orloff, who comes from a famous Russian noble family, holds as a soloist in his ensemble. Enthusiastic television appearances before millions of viewers and numerous Gold Records and CDs underscore the reputation of the Schwarzmeer Kosaken-Chor as an outstanding Cossack ensemble of our time. Audiences can look forward to an equally fascinating and moving concert event, which the press celebrates as "Orloff's Miracle Choir" with "voices as beautiful and grand as Russia".
Under the guidance of Peter Orloff, highly decorated Ukrainian and Russian singers of absolute world-class perform in warm harmony - breathtaking tenors, profound basses, and as a special highlight, an absolute rarity, a male soprano from the Kiev Opera. Vocal wonders or wonderful voices - both are correct! The ensemble also includes three of the world's best Russian instrumental virtuosos. They accompanied Ivan Rebroff until his passing and are now essentially his musical legacy to his former companion and friend, Peter Orloff. Thanks to its almost unique lineup, the Schwarzmeer Kosaken-Chor is capable of performing a truly exceptional program with pieces like the "Prisoner's Chorus," "Swan Lake," "Dein ist mein ganzes Herz," or the showpiece solo of all great tenors - "Nessun Dorma".
The centerpiece of the concert is, of course, the most precious gems from the rich treasure trove of Russian and Ukrainian music literature such as the famous "Evening Bells," "The Twelve Robbers," "I Pray to the Power of Love," "Stenka Rasin," "The Lonely Little Bell," "Kalinka," and by popular demand, "The Volga Song".
It is a musical journey from Moscow to Lake Baikal, from Kiev to St. Petersburg, with romances, stories, and ballads of overwhelming expressiveness, deep melancholy, and exuberant temperament. Heroic deeds, glory, and greatness of past days shine anew in bright splendor, evoking memories and longings - a true fireworks display of emotions.
Peter Orloff promises the audience an unforgettable concert evening today. Or, as some spectators comment, a "concert with goosebumps guarantee" and a "musical natural phenomenon."
There are many Cossack choirs - but only one Schwarzmeer Kosaken-Chor!
THE VOLGA SONG - Total emotional!
