Rüdiger Baldauf feat. Max Mutzke

In the organizer's words:

A true feast for lovers of top-class live music!

Rüdiger Baldauf, the outstanding trumpeter and creative head of Trumpet Night, regularly invites the stars of the music scene to an impressive gathering. He brings together renowned guests such as Max Mutzke, Thomas Quasthoff, Laith Al-Deen, Nils Landgren, Marc Marshall and many more on stage.

Baldauf demonstrates his versatility by, for example, adapting and rearranging the guests' compositions to suit the respective line-up. The result is an impressive fusion of artistic skill and musical passion that casts an irresistible spell over the audience. But Trumpet Night is not just a showcase for the soloists, as it is also accompanied by an extremely high-caliber band. Rüdiger Baldauf's Trumpet Night & Friends is a real live experience!

Max Mutzke (voice)
He is undoubtedly one of the best German pop and soul singers. With his powerful voice, he can effortlessly cover any genre. "Welt hinter Glas" from his last studio album "Max" was a pop radio hit. With the NDR Radiophilharmonie he revives the great tradition of American jazz orchestras with classics such as "Me & Mrs. Jones" and with his band monoPunk it gets pretty funky.
