Orchesterkaraoke

In the organizer's words:

Opera

Karaoke singing to symphonic accompaniment
In German and English

This is where the last - and perhaps most magical - boundary of the theater falls: the one between stage and auditorium. For karaoke fans, this concert show has long been cult, for everyone else an invitation to a rousing, humorous and surprisingly touching evening. It all began 19 years ago when Matthias von Hartz decided to free karaoke culture from its dubious reputation and bring it to the theater. The idea was as simple as it was radical: take a large symphony orchestra, combine it with a casual moderation, a charmingly improvised DIY-style karaoke machine - and put your trust in an intrepid audience that loves pop music just as much as the rich sound of classical instruments. Since then, it's been all go: Clear the stage! Anyone who wants to can step into the spotlight - accompanied by the orchestral power of the Heidelberg Academic Orchestra conducted by Jan Dvořák. Whether you're vocally powerful, quirky, virtuoso or simply full of enthusiasm: you can become a star here for five minutes. This content has been machine translated.
