Cabaret Berlin: Revue, Kabarett and Film Music between the Wars
Used Book in Good Condition
Gorgeous, archival photographs of shows and architecture combined with authentic recordings bring the roaring twenties in Berlin to life in this stunning coffee table book and 4-CD collection. From Kurt Tucholsky to Marlene Dietrich: authors, composers and performers present an intimate view to a riotously comic and tragic era. No cultural history would be complete without the hit songs composed by Ralph Benatzky, Werner Richard Heymann, Friedrich Hollaender, Rudolf Nelson, and Mischa Spoliansky; presented here on four CDs that also include wonderful archival recordings of Marlene Dietrich, Curt Bois, The Comedian Harmonists, Trude Hesterberg, and Margo Lion. Life is a cabaret, and this book is an unsurpassed celebration of that era of incredible musical performance.
