Chris de Burgh

In the organizer's words:

Chris de Burgh invites you to an atmospheric summer night solo

His solo tours are so successful that they will be extended again in summer 2026! The demand for Chris de Burgh's solo concerts continues unabated - this time they are entitled "A Summer Night with Chris de Burgh". The audience is enthusiastic and the critics are full of praise for the way the singer/guitarist/pianist presents a musical cross-section of his career in more than two hours with around 30 songs. This will also be the case at the thirteen appearances in Germany between July 12 and August 1. Tickets are available in advance. "What makes his concerts so special
is their reduction to the essentials", was written in the city magazine Moritz. "Chris de Burgh proves that great songs don't need a great band. Hearing hits like "The Lady In Red" or "Missing You" in their original acoustic versions is a real highlight. Many of his songs tell stories that have touched people all over the world - from intimate love songs to epic tales of humanity, war and hope. In his solo performances, this narrative art comes into its own. The audience experiences an artist who achieves great effect with few resources - just voice, instrument and heart. Those who attend will experience not just a concert, but a journey through five decades of music history, accompanied by a man who performs with authenticity, emotion and great respect for his audience." "Reducing Chris de Burgh to his cuddly songs has always been wrong," the author of BZ Berlin also noted. "Yes, many of his songs are of a quieter nature...but the majority of his oeuvre, which now comprises 330 songs, ...is simply A-grade pop music. And songs like 'Spanish Train', 'Transmission Ends' or 'Don't Pay the Ferryman' are really the opposite of schmaltz." This realization seems to be getting around. A glance around the audience at the concert in the state capital proved this and even led to a tabloid headline: "Chris de Burgh - also celebrated by men!"
