Evers & Eichhorn: BEZIRKSLIEDER

Horst Evers and Benedikt Eichhorn explain Berlin with a bag of songs that did a shit job.

On 1.1.2001 came over Berlin what has already led to considerable problems in many countries of the world: The arbitrary setting of new borders without regard to grown structures. Tribes and populations were merged that had no common language, no common background and no sense of belonging. The consequences are well known.

Evers and Eichhorn are declared opponents of the district reform and continue to play Berlin in the borders of 1998.

Horst Evers knows his way around the city. Which leads him to musically take care of the districts, which merged into twelve districts in 2001. Now this may not sound interesting, were it not for the fact that Evers is the author. For anyone who knows the man with the red shirt and the pronounced sense of self-irony knows: it's going to be funny!

The pianist Benedikt Eichhorn, in his other life a piano slave of Thomas Pigor, is also involved - here he has a much more frequent say.

The duo sings about Berlin's districts - all of them. Many well-known district songs from Spandau to Marzahn, Weißensee to Treptow and a medley of the remaining districts meet newer texts from, about and around Berlin.
