Neil Young – Comes a Song

In the organizer's words:

NEIL YOUNG - COMES A SONG

Concert reading with Ludwig Blochberger after Navid Kermani

Neil Young's songs form the centerpiece of this homage - played and sung live by Ludwig Blochberger. From Navid Kermani's story about a young family whose newborn daughter only finds sleep with Neil Young's music, a musical-literary evening about memory, lost illusions, moments of happiness and the big questions of life unfolds. In a carefully abridged version, the actor combines Kermani's text with songs that are far more than just musical interludes: They pick up on motifs, carry on moods and give the narrative its own movement. The result is not a song recital with reading passages, but a dense interplay of literature and concert - personal, concentrated and with great musical presence.

Cast: Ludwig Blochberger (reading, guitar, vocals)

Playing time: approx. 120 minutes, plus interval

Press and audience reviews:

"Above all, the former Viennese choirboy has the right feeling for the music, and so the concept works brilliantly."
Abendzeitung Munich, 14.11.2024

"If you spend a Saturday evening laughing, singing, pondering and with goosebumps, that's a good evening."
Theater Görlitz, February 03, 2024

"If you closed your eyes, you almost thought you could hear the master himself singing and playing."
Theaterhaus Stuttgart, 09 February 2024
