Musikalische Lesung mit KATINKA SPRINGBORN & JOHANNES KIRCHBERG

In the organizer's words:

A musical reading as part of "Hamburg reads the Elbe"

What could be better suited to the "Hamburg reads the Elbe" festival than to recall a love story set on the Elbe. On the Elbe near Övelgönne. The love story between Jan Möller and Kyri Sandvoss. He, known to everyone only as Jan Himp, who works for a boat rental company, and she, the shipowner's daughter, affectionately known as "little breeze".
Immerse yourself in the Hamburg of the 1920s. Let yourself be enchanted by the story set on the Elbe, by sleek sailing boats, big pots, smuggling and St. Pauli. Hear about the ease of sailing on the Elbe and the treacherous dangers that lurk there. And feel the freedom, the love and, above all, the great river that has always characterized Hamburg: the Elbe.
Hans Leip, the Hamburg writer, best known and not forgotten for his poem "Lili Marleen", published this novel in 1934.

The actress KATINKA SPRINGBORN and the musician JOHANNES KIRCHBERG have selected the most beautiful and appropriate passages from the novel and shaped them into a unique scenic reading. You can also listen to poems by Hans Leip, set to music by Johannes Kirchberg, which deal with the Elbe, seafaring and Hamburg
