Inside

An evening between chanson, cabaret, and golden melancholy

The Ballhaus Orchestra brings the sparkling sound of the Twenties to the stage at the city library of Freising: elegant, charming, and with that fine irony that makes great entertainment truly unforgettable. Under the title From Holländer to Weill, a musical time window opens into the world of hits, chanson, and socially critical cabaret.

Music that echoes the revue palace and night café

Since 1994, Peter Wittmann and Horst Plössner have cultivated the art of stylish presentation. As MC and singers, as well as at the piano, they interpret evergreens from the 1920s and 1930s with cool charm, refined elegance, and a well-measured touch of dark humor. The result is a stage experience that not only shimmers nostalgically but brings the atmosphere of a glamorous era to life.

Between Friedrich Hollaender and Kurt Weill

The evening spans the range from sophisticated hits to intelligently sharpened cabaret. When the music of Friedrich Hollaender resonates and the world of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill shines through, a mix of wit, nostalgia, and urbanity is created that makes this repertoire so unique. Especially in the reduction to the duo, a special closeness to the audience unfolds: every nuance of the voice, every note of the piano, every ironic glance becomes part of the dramaturgy.

A concert in the special theater atmosphere of the city library

The city library of Freising offers a fitting setting for this subtle performance as a cultural venue. The intimate space amplifies the acoustics, intensifies the audience's reaction, and allows the music to have an immediate impact. Those who take a seat here do not experience a distant revue, but a lively encounter with the culture of the Roaring Twenties – close, direct, and surprisingly contemporary.

Conclusion

The Ballhaus Orchestra promises a stylish evening full of musical elegance, pointed word art, and nostalgic radiance in Freising. Anyone who loves chanson, cabaret, and salon-worthy stage art should experience this performance live and be carried away by its unique rhythm.
