Gerhard Schöne

The children's song alphabet

On stage: two large letters, an A and a Z, between them an oriental music machine, an American-Taiwanese guitar, a leather suitcase from Phantasia.

In front of the stage: children from today, yesterday and the day before yesterday. Hall lights off. Stage lights on.

Who's stepping up to the microphone? A new pop star in a glittery outfit? Nope. An old acquaintance with his old hat. He's not shouting: Hey Dortmund!!! Are you in a good mood? He might say: "Nice to see you!" A zigzag journey begins, from the beginning of the world to the magic song and - of course - to the encore, at least across the alphabet.

Gerhard Schöne sings and plays his way through the 26 letters on this afternoon with 26 of his own hits and completely new songs. Sometimes in Lucio's car, sometimes in Grandpa's boat, or a yogi's flying carpet, through real and invented countries, through well-known and brand new songs. In 26 songs we sang, laughed and thought together.

Program duration: approx. 75 minutes
