- In Kooperation mit dem Cologne Comedy Festival
The Gürzenich Orchestra and cabaret artist Martin Zingsheim celebrate the 33rd Cologne Comedy Festival and go on a musical adventure with Rhenish entertainment experts like Jaques Offenbach. Was Orpheus really in the underworld or did he just get lost on the Zülpicher? Haven't all films in truth always been set in Cologne? And what would it sound like if the greatest Cologne mood songs had been composed by geniuses of classical music? And why did a Saxon write the famous Rhenish Symphony in Düsseldorf? Questions upon questions. Experience a unique cocktail of first-class orchestral music and virtuoso comedy on the schnapps-filled anniversary of the Cologne Comedy Festival.
