With Timna Brauer
Jannis Raptis – Guitar & Vocals
I was so happy with my wife, with my family, with my art, and with my Vienna Woods. But there is a time when you live, and there are two eternities when you do not exist.
With these words, Arik Brauer bid farewell as he passed away at the age of 92 on January 24, 2021, surrounded by his family, and the city of Vienna lost one of its most fascinating creative minds. In memory of her father, the renowned chanson and world music interpreter Timna Brauer walks the life paths of Arik Brauer at the Grandhotel Panhans and reads from his autobiography "The Colors of My Life."
In these moving tales of a wanderer between worlds, the boundaries between memoirs, historical and cultural narratives blur, quirky events alternate with social reflections, and fantasy and reality merge into a vivid portrait. Timna Brauer's touching interpretation of this colorful panorama provides a particularly personal image of the life and work of the versatile artist. Accompanying herself on the guitar, she plays the most famous melodies of Arik Brauer, whose Viennese songs filled many households in the 1970s with the sounds of his street poetry.
