Dr. Pop
Hitverdächtig - Der musikalische Jahresrückblick

Can you actually get a doctorate in pop music? Yes! And what do you do with it? Comedy and cabaret. Dr. Pop is a doctor for all things musical. He practises on radio, TV, online and on stage, treating audiences with music samples and bizarre - but entirely true - music facts. Did you know that termites chew through wood twice as fast when they hear heavy metal? Or that the Barry White Effect is a real concept in evolutionary theory? The deeper a male's voice, the better his mating chances - and that goes for humans and koalas alike.

In Dr. Pop's live show, music takes centre stage - tracks that can rescue a party, a relationship or your motivation to exercise. Pop, rock, classical, schlager, jazz, hip-hop, rap: Dr. Pop fires off familiar and obscure samples from across music history. By the end of the show, everyone in the audience knows how to enrich their life with music just a little bit more.

In "Hitverdächtig - Der musikalische Jahresrückblick", Dr. Pop dissects the musical highs and lows of the past year. Which music defined the year? Why did a Beyoncé concert push up inflation in Sweden? What new music studies came out that are actually useful in everyday life? And why is a Christmas song still the best-selling record in music history? Dr. Pop has the right hit for every question. Hitverdächtig - a comedy and knowledge show for anyone who loves music or is just getting started.
