The works of the Jewish composer Kurt Weill, who was born in Dessau in 1900 and matured into an artist in Berlin in the 1920s, were banned and burned by the Nazis in 1933, despite massive successes such as the "Threepenny Opera". Weill fled to New York via Paris and revolutionized musical theater on Broadway with pieces that were also made into films in Hollywood. Until his death in 1950, his work was dedicated to the perfect fusion of text, scene and music.
With an "incredibly nuanced multi-octave voice" (Berliner Morgenpost), Vladimir Korneev brings Weill's music into the here and now. He celebrates the universal language of music and honors Kurt Weill's life's work as YOUKALI - named after the song that Weill wrote in exile about a utopian country: a home in which everyone can feel respected, loved and free.
