An evening by and with Barbara Schnitzler and Nikolai Orloff
"Everything has its time. Collecting stones, scattering stones. Plant trees, cut down trees. Living and dying and peace and strife ..." - In 1973, the Puhdys song "Wenn ein Mensch lebt" ("When a person lives") made the verses, which are 2500 years old, a hit. The songs and texts presented by Barbara Schnitzler together with pianist Nikolai Orloff on this evening revolve around the time that accompanies us all: Songs by Hermann van Veen, Hanns Eisler, Max Raabe, Robert Schumann, Helge Schneider, Rainald Grebe and - of course - the Puhdys. Texts by Erich Kästner, Bertolt Brecht, Mascha Kaléko, Hilde Domin and Reiner Kunze, among others.
