oder: "Was macht der Wolf im Kaffeehaus?"
Hagar Sharvit (mezzo-soprano)
Mikhail Timoshenko (baritone)
Elitsa Desseva (piano)
Nikolaus Büchel (Directing)
A humorous evening with works by Hugo Wolf, Johannes Brahms, Gustav Mahler, Georg Kreisler u. a.

And where do all the threads in the Kaffeehaus come together? The maître d', who knows everyone and everything, pulling the strings in the background.
In this entertaining recital, we meet all these characters and their stories in songs from Hugo Wolf to Georg Kreisler - charmingly and captivatingly performed by artists who are well known to the IHWA, but who now show their humorous and tongue-in-cheek side here: Hagar Sharvit, Mikhail Timoshenko and Elitsa Desseva.
