Ulla Meinecke - Bessere Zeiten

What times we live in. Ulla Meinecke's love poetry and everyday irony may not conjure up better times, but they can offer a few hours of relief and breathing space.

Her new programme again brings love songs unlike any you've heard before - poems set to music, free of sentimentality yet full of depth. Ulla Meinecke is a master of the well-chosen word. Her stories are portraits of the ordinary that pursue the extraordinary in a way that is entirely her own. The texts of this self-declared "hardcore romantic" circle around one great subject - true love: tender beginnings, small escapes, grand dramas and strong exits.

Look forward to an evening of sharp observations, humour and musical detours alongside Reinmar Henschke. All of Ulla Meinecke's hits will be performed, along with plenty of new material. She has sold well over a million records. A composer and song-poet, she was already a rock and pop singer at a time when those genres were barely talked about in Germany.
