& JULIA - Das Musical

What would happen if Juliet was given a second chance at life and love after Romeo's death? This question is answered by the turbulent musical & JULIA in Hamburg, which heralds the beginning of a fast-paced and colorful comedy in which the 16th century meets pop culture. After Romeo's death, Juliet makes the decision to leave the drama in Verona behind and flee to Paris. Here she encounters new adventures, challenges and is given a second chance to take control of her destiny.

Among the 24 number 1 pop hits that are heard in their original English version in this musical comedy are, for example, Katy Perry's "Roar", Justin Timberlake's "Can't Stop The Feeling" and "Perfect" by P!nk . Experience Julia's captivating story in a completely new dimension - an unforgettable spectacle that you shouldn't miss!

A New Family Affair

JazzAmen presents: A new Family Affair - Ella & Kjell feat. Ingolf Burkhardt
intimate sound of jazz, folk and soul

In the JazzAmen series, Jazz Award winners Ella (Burkhardt) & Kjell (Kitzing) will be joining us with new songs. The successful duo is joined once again by trumpeter Ingolf Burkhardt , Ella's father, known to many as one of the main soloists of the NDR Big Band and a fixture on the European jazz and trumpet scene. Together, they will once again conjure an intimate sound of jazz, folk, and soul onto our stage, creating space for dreams and contemplation.

The trio's repertoire includes their own songs as well as standards from Gershwin to Joni Mitchell, Johnny Cash, and Bob Dylan – crossing genre boundaries with joy and fearlessness. We can look forward to another exciting and relaxed "Family Affair" at the Kulturkirche Altona!

Amaryllis Quartett

Longing can mean giving a tangible sense of lack something like an undefined direction. No medium is as familiar with this phenomenon as music, where the audible sound always communicates to its listeners as a structure of tension, an urgency, or a palpable sense of calm. The Amaryllis Quartet explores the relationship between »music« and »longing« in a multi-layered program that begins by combining Antonín Dvořák’s famous miniature »Cypresses« with the contemporary work »Gesänge der Sehnsucht« (Songs of Longing) by David Philip Hefti. The key of longing par excellence, E-minor, then gives Ludwig van Beethoven the opportunity to point far ahead into the musical language of Romanticism through his string quartet, using the stylistic means of the Classical period.
