Simon & Garfunkel - Tribute Meets Classic - Graceland Duo with String Quartet and Band

With songs like "The Sound of Silence" and "Cecilia," Simon & Garfunkel created poetic anthems for an entire generation  "Mrs. Robinson" became world-famous in 1969 thanks to the American film "The Graduate." In 1968, the American duo wrote "The Boxer," a deeply emotional ode to a survivor. Two years later, "Bridge Over Troubled Water," a composition of simple beauty, went down in music history as a message of hope. For several years now, the duo Graceland has been deeply exploring the musical spirit of their idols and touring the country with great success with their program “A Tribute to Simon & Garfunkel.” Thomas Wacker (Paul Simon) and Thorsten Gary (Art Garfunkel) quickly realized that Simon & Garfunkel’s music is perfectly suited to uniting the countless classics of what is arguably the world’s most famous folk-rock duo with the unmistakable sound of a classical string ensemble. The interplay of the two voices and two guitars with the classical instruments transforms the songs of Simon & Garfunkel into an expressive and extraordinary musical experience. Concertgoers can expect an evening full of emotion, a tribute to the ’60s and ’70s, and a musical diversity rarely seen. With the band and quartet, they’ll take you on a journey through the soulful songs and “rock out” with the audience at other moments.
