- On a Sunday evening in August in the Berliner Waldbühne around 20,000 people
- with rain gear and blankets held thousands of colorful umbrellas while listening to
- Max Raabe and his Palast Orchester’s hits of the twenties and early-thirties.
- As the most exquisite interpreter of these tunes, Max Raabe and his Palast
- Orchester play them with such precision, jovial vitality and utter perfection that the
- 80 year old songs sound as fresh and lively as they did when first performed.
- They therefore aren’t simply remakes, but wonderful new interpretations which
- reveal the timeless modernity of these brilliant works.
- The people of Berlin have had to wait one and a half years for the return of their
- Palast Orchester. The tour in which they performed for excited audiences all over the
- world included concerts in New York, Shanghai, Tokyo, Rome, Paris and Moscow.
