Berlin! Berlin! Berlin! - Kabarettund Exil
This BIS album, "Berlin! Berlin! Berlin! - Kabarett und Exil," traces German song from the 1920s to the fall of the Third Reich, as classical tradition mingled with operetta, cabaret and the syncopated energy of jazz. Mezzo-soprano Anne Sofie von Otter is joined by the Salon Orchestra of the Komische Oper Berlin under conductor Adam Benzwi, specialists in the city's distinctive "Prussian swing." The programme ranges from lyrical operetta favourites to sharp cabaret satire and delightfully absurd chansons. Beneath the wit and glamour lie melancholy, irony and pointed social commentary, capturing a society in extraordinary upheaval. The result is a vivid portrait of Weimar-to-wartime Berlin, performed with style, humour and real emotional depth.
