Rainbow Concert for a Cosmopolitan Thuringia
Chill & Jam: “Tribute to Judy Garland & Liza Minnelli”
Doors open at 7:00 p.m. Start time: 7:30 p.m.
Admission: donation
An evening of bright colors, glamour, and great melodies: this rainbow concert invites you to a musical show combining Broadway flair, cabaret charm, and jazz lounge – sometimes sparkling like sequins, sometimes delicate like a spotlight in the semi-darkness.
The focus is on songs and sounds that represent hope, attitude, and show charisma – associated with the artists Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli: from “Over the Rainbow” to “Cabaret,” from swing to ballads, with a lot of heart and a wink.
The evening's music is provided by “Chill & Jam”:
Klaus Heissenberger (double bass & vocals, Jena Philharmonic Orchestra)
Ivan Hernandez (jazz piano)
Frank Becker (drums)
“Chill & Jam” combines groovy jazz, casual elegance, and stage energy: a trio that not only plays songs, but also gives them space – for improvisation, rhythm, and goose bump moments.
Two sentences that serve as the motto for the evening:
“Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.” – Judy Garland
“Some people think reality must be constantly depressing, but I think reality is something you rise above.” – Liza Minnelli
All fans of the community and all open-minded people are invited – for an evening that sparkles, warms and lingers.
