Ludwigslust castle concert

It is the flourishing life that gives the golden twenties their reputation. For the time is characterized by confidence and joie de vivre: Cafés, theaters and vaudevilles spring up. Cinemas develop into mass entertainment. Nightlife in the cities was boisterous and permissive. In Leipzig's
Krystallpalast, Josephine Baker swings her revealing outfit, the Comedian Harmonists sing the praises of the little green cactus, and the Astorias invite you to Ludwigslust - to a sparkling evening in the style of the time. Confidence and joie de vivre are still so urgently needed 100 years later.
Musicians from the picturesque State capital Schwerin have come together to revive the glamorous "Golden Twenties": The initiator, trumpeter and arranger Jan Birkner called this ensemble into being and arranged a comprehensive repertoire for this evening. The mainly German-language texts are charmingly interpreted by singer Anja-Maria Wedekind, and the band is under the musical direction of Thomas Möckel, a pianist and conductor with many years of theater experience.
The Astoria Salon Orchestra plays with these two opposites. "That the orchestra can put on an evening-filling program is shown by their concerts, at which the audience is completely out of their minds and most guests would have liked to start dancing right away," according to the SVZ on 9. 12. 2021.
