Wilhelm Busch: Die fromme Helene

With Pirkko Cremer and Hans Kaspar Scharf on piano

A staged reading of the tragicomic tale of religious hypocrisy and dubious bourgeois morality.
Die fromme Helene is rightly one of Wilhelm Busch's most beloved characters - shaped in part by his years in Frankfurt with the Keßler banking family.

"Das Gute - dieser Satz steht fest -
Ist stets das Böse, was man läßt!"
