FacebookMax Raabe & Palast Orchester on Tour in the US
February 16, 2010 by GW Editorial Staff

The inimitable Max Raabe & Palast Orchester embody the music, style and decadence of Weimar-era Berlin. Raabe and his stellar 12-member band return to the US with a brand new program, “A Night in Berlin,” celebrating the musical glory of the 1920s and ’30s. Travel back to the roaring 20s with a brassy big band celebration the New York Daily News calls, “one of the smoothest treasures ever to hit Carnegie Hall.”
A singer of incredible range, Raabe can capture the cunning rasp of the cabaret singer, the confidence of the belcanto hero, the carefree timbre of early jazz, as well as the falsetto of ragtime.. Cabaret cool, smooth, and wryly funny—Max Raabe charmingly commands the stage and croons the audience back to a bygone era.

Moin, Moin from Texas!
If you like Max’ music and the Golden entertainment of the 1920s, you might like Brendan McNally’s dark comic novel “Germania” (Simon & Schuster, 2009), about the Flying Magical Loerber Brothers, four somewhat magical, Jewish vaudeville entertainers and onetime child stars who were the toast of Berlin before WWII and who reunite during the surreal, three-week “Flensburg Reich” of Admiral Doenitz, Hitler’s very unlucky successor.
I don’t remember when I have had as much fun as when I saw and heard Max Raabe in Oakland and on PBS. I can’t get enough of his music. What a great entertainer and what a great orchester. Thanks for bringing such wonderful lightness in our lives:)!
