Wiener Comedian Harmonists - Entry of the Gladiators

**Arrival of the Gladiators**

Look forward to a concert of a special kind with Christoph Wagner-Trenkwitz! The Vienna Comedian Harmonists sing, swing, and entertain their audience with both well-known and lesser-known songs from the 1920s and 1930s, as well as reinterpretations of current songs and famous opera classics. The five gentlemen of the State Opera Choir, along with their pianist, manage to delight their listeners time and again with a large dose of "Wiener Schmäh," a lot of lightness, and humor. The Kraus family meets and wonders what Marie is up to today, as the Stars & Stripes sparkle when the guitars play. From "Veronika, the Spring is Here" to "Puttin' on the Ritz," from "Ali Baba" to "Nessun dorma," no wish remains unfulfilled, and good entertainment at the highest musical level is guaranteed. At the end of the performance, everyone joyfully concludes in the best of spirits: "What a wonderful world." Christoph Wagner-Trenkwitz charmingly and humorously guides the audience through the varied program as the host, entertaining them with anecdotes and stories related to the musical pieces.
