Meta Hüper

From Brel to Ravel - chanson meets classical music!
 
When Meta takes to the stage in tails, braces and hat, it's as if time has been turned back 100 years. The Berlin singer is a musical jack-of-all-trades. As a singer, violinist and bandleader, she has performed on international stages for years with greats such as Till Brönner, Max Raabe and Salut Salon.
 
In her programme, Meta takes the audience on a musical journey through the emotional worlds of the night. With charm, temperament and passion, she sings, plays and taps her way through her favourite music. Meta takes her audience to wicked bars, lonely streets and erotic milongas and tells stories of joy, sorrow, hope and love.
 

Listeners can expect classics such as Zarah Leander's Nur nicht aus Liebe weinen, Marlene Dietrich's Ich weiß nicht zu wem ich gehöre, Edith Piaf's Je ne regrette rien and Brel's Ne me quitte pas. Italian hits from the 1950s are reminiscent of warm nights in the south and awaken a longing for more. Meta adds her own personal touch to the evening with her own arrangements and unusual instrumentation. Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata on the singing saw merges with AC/DC's Thunderstruck as a violin solo, Rusalka's Aria to the Moon is transformed into a passionate Tango Argentino and Ravel's Bolero becomes a spectacular orchestral work with the help of a looping device. A real treat for the eyes and ears!
 
Meta is accompanied by Jens Schlichting on the piano. The celebrated silent film pianist is equally at home in classical music and jazz and knows how to lend the evening a special glamour with sensitivity and musical refinement.
 
!Wenn es Nacht wird! is as multi-layered as the night itself and promises one thing above all: it's worth staying awake!
