Revival of the Roaring Twenties
Denis Wittberg is the most stylish seduction since the "Roaring Twenties". Charming, ironic and on a high level, he and his shellac soloists lead us through the music of the 20s and 30s, through the Berlin of the Roaring Twenties with its dance palaces and variety theaters, when Walter Jurmann, Peter Kreuder and Robert Gilbert were still writing the top hits of the season.
The mostly well-known cabaret hits and couplets from the 20s and 30s are always a lot of fun, because some of them have a lot going on behind the lyrics. Experience hits and couplets from the 20s and 30s by well-known lyricists and composers such as Otto Reuter, Friedrich Holländer, Rudolf Nelson and Fritz Rotter. The contradiction between the stylishly dressed singer and the highly witty lyrics creates a very special kind of unobtrusive humor.
To this day, Denis Wittberg and his Schellack-Solisten give guest performances throughout Germany and delight their audiences not only with hits from the 20s and 30s. They have also recorded hits from the New German Wave repertoire from the early 80s as if they had been written in the 20s. Witty, but by no means silly and dusty, but stylish and relaxed - that's what the musicians around Wittberg stand for.
