Sing Sistah Sing!

Das besondere Konzert: "Sing Sistah Sing"

Samstag, 02.11.2019, 19:30 Uhr, Tanzschule Pelzer, Zum Quellenpark 31

Eintritt: € 15,00 / € 10,00 (Schüler, Studenten)
Freie Platzwahl.

Andrea Baker, auf allen großen Bühnen der Welt zuhause (Met NY, Salzburger Festspiele, Berliner Philharmoniker, Grand Opera Houston u.a.), singt Stücke von Gospel bis Wagner und erzählt dabei die Geschichte der schwarzen Sängerinnen Amerikas vom Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bis heute.
Diskriminierung macht auch vor den ganz großen Namen nicht halt, und es gibt auch aus der jüngeren Vergangenheit einiges zu berichten. Jede der Sängerinnen, die vorgestellt werden, von Mahalia Jackson bis zu Jessye Norman, hatte einen weltberühmten Song oder eine Arie, die sie unsterblich machte. Andrea Baker lässt uns all diese Evergreens mit ihrer Weltklassestimme erleben. Begleitet wird sie von ihrem hervorragenden Pianisten Richard Lewis.
