Whether as Bavarian King Ludwig II or Franz Kafka - the film and theater actor Sabin Tambrea impresses time and again with his enormous versatility and dramatic intensity. Ideal prerequisites for this highly emotional evening with the renowned pianist Alexander Krichel. The captivating art of recitation and piano accompaniment combine in a haunting way in the eerie concert melodramas from Schumann to Strauss. Not for the faint-hearted is probably the most grandiose example of the genre: Max von Schilling's "Hexenlied" - the monk Medardus' monstrous confession that will make your blood run cold.
