»Schlage die Trommel und fürchte dich nicht«
Regarding the »Book Le Grand«, Heinrich Heine wrote to a friend: »I have broken a whole new path in it, at the risk of my life. I have also tried pure, free humour in an autobiographical fragment!«
In the allusive, witty, even ironically malicious book, Heine wrote about his life and environment in an artificial conversation (»Madame, ...«). The encounter with Napoleon and his soldiers is one of his major themes. The longing to find safety from Prussia and the censors in exile was something he was already feeling at the time. Five years later, he would therefore leave for Paris.
Heine’s lieder were arranged by Elbtonal Percussion for their instrumental universe – exciting sounds and songs in a new guise have emerged. The result is a picture of the young Heinrich Heine: feisty, clever, loved and antagonised.
Please note: this event takes place in German.
