Description

RESPECT – The Aretha Franklin Story
For the first time on Swiss tour! Aretha Franklin – the undisputed 'Queen of Soul', multiple Grammy winner and the first woman in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, passed away after a life full of highs and lows on August 16, 2018, in Detroit. RESPECT – The Aretha Franklin Story, the new show from the renowned Sweet Soul Music series, presents the key milestones of her career and provides a representative overview of her over 50 years of musical creation. You can expect a full-length and entertaining show with video inserts, many biographical contents that tell Aretha's journey, and a musical cast of the highest level. Not only will the greatest hits from the international charts such as I Never Loved A Man, Respect, Chain Of Fools, Natural Woman, Think, I Say A Little Prayer, Don’t Play That Song, Spanish Harlem, Rock Steady, Until You Come Back To Me, Angel, and Ain’t No Way be interpreted by the high-profile lead and backing vocals Darnita Williams, Noreda Graves, Donniele Graves, April «Journi» Cook, Menoosha Susunghi, Lisa Benjamin, and Flore M in the best tribute manner with their own expressiveness and performance power. Aretha's lesser-known soul and gospel gems and her successful duets with other famous stars like I Knew You Were Waiting (with George Michael), Sisters Are Doin’ It For Themselves (with Eurythmics), plus some of her many cover versions of well-known hits like Bridge Over Troubled Water will also be presented. A ten-member band (Drums, Percussion, Bass, Guitar, Keyboard, Hammond Organ, Trumpet, Alto Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Baritone Saxophone) guarantees the authentic sound of the soul era. And all of this is done with full respect and deep reverence for the immortal Queen of Soul. Contributors: Respect - The Aretha Franklin Story
