Birgit Minichmayr - Liederabend: Sing me not a Ballad

What's it about?

Birgit Minichmayr Liederabend: Sing me not a Ballad Following in the footsteps of Brecht & Weill: Birgit Minichmayr embodies Lotte Lenya The renowned actress Birgit Minichmayr and the versatile musician Martin Siewert present songs by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill. With her very personal, raw timbre, Minichmayr traces their most important interpreter: the great Austrian actress and singer Lotte Lenya - not a muse, but a partner, co-creator of committed theater. Here, everything can be discussed: male fantasies and female roles, exploitation, war, displacement, and the catastrophes of modernity are addressed with anger, scorn, fun, and irony.
