APRÈS CHURCH AT THE KUNSTHOFKÖPENICK: Backyard Vendors

Maids would briefly pause their work to have a little dance, while the masters listened surreptitiously from behind the curtains—only to toss a penny wrapped in newspaper into the courtyard as a token of thanks.

Susanne Brantl and her musicians bring this milieu back to life: tracing the often arduous living conditions with “Songs of a Poor Girl” by Holländer, “Nanna’s Song” by Brecht, and Fritzi Massary’s reimagined image of women in “Why Shouldn’t a Woman Have an Affair?”—a journey through time to operetta, cinema, and cabaret; Claire Waldoff’s “Because of Emil’s Indecent Lust” shows: the chansons from the old gramophones have remained astonishingly relevant...
