MOONLIGHT Concert - Rhythm of Life. Rhythm, Pop, Lyric & Classic

Moonlight Concert is a unique musical experience that fascinatingly combines diverse genres and instrumentation. With vocals, saxophone, piano, guitar, Syrian darbuka and percussion, a soundscape emerges that enchants the senses and touches the heart.

In an atmosphere of candlelight and moonlight, five accomplished instrumentalists take you into a world of moving instrumental and singer-songwriter music. Enriched with expressive interpretations of lyrical classics by Rainer Maria Rilke and rounded out with arrangements of classical works from Domenico Scarlatti to Johann Sebastian Bach.

Moonlight Concert is a special moment to let yourself be enchanted by the magic of a sensual atmosphere of poetic music. It is a journey into the world of poetry, brought to life through passionate and extravagant music. Cologne-based singer-songwriter Michael Schweiger, known as DER SCHWEIGER, invites renowned artists to this extraordinary musical concept. With his melancholic and sensual songs, Schweiger offers unusual insights into strangely intimate stories. The Cologne musician constantly seeks out new musical impulses in unconventional sound and creates a powerful balance between lightness and weight.

Alongside PETER KLINKENBERG - principal percussionist and timpani player of the Heidelberg Philharmonic Orchestra, Syrian percussion virtuoso Shadi Al Housh captivates visitors with his vibrant rhythms. SHADI AL HOSH unfolds an unexpected - rhythmic kaleidoscope, employing not only the traditional darbuka drum but also the smaller riq.
