KURT - THE NIGHT, THE NOISE, THE SONG

Description

GUEST PERFORMANCE KURT - THE NIGHT, THE NOISE, THE SONG
Rare songs by Kurt Weill. By and with Melanie Schmidli (performance, vocals), Martino Dessi (guitar). Duration: approx. 1h 30min (including a break after approx. 40 min). PREMIERE on 19.11.2025, 7:30 PM. Experience Kurt Weill away from the hits – with rare songs from Berlin, Paris, and Broadway, with voice and guitar, jazz and chanson!

The singer Melanie Schmidli and the guitarist Martino Dessi, both known from our in-house production GEREIZTHEITEN and Dessi also from DIVA BERLIN and THOMAS MANN: MARIO UND DER ZAUBERER, dedicate themselves in this program in a distinctive way to the work of a composer whose music has been telling of longing, resistance, and exile for almost a hundred years. Dessi translates Weill's music into a sound language of jazz and cinematic sounds; Schmidli approaches the texts with a voice that sings, narrates, or sometimes even contradicts. – An intimate concert evening for all who seek stories in songs. And an echo in the silence.
