Fine linguistic wit, surprising rhyme culture and virtuoso piano playing - Bodo Wartke's seventh program offers entertaining musical cabaret and an acrobatic tongue twister slam. The entertainer and poet sets amazement against the power of habit and puts humor alongside old patterns. Lightness! - Why not?
Bodo Wartke gets to the heart of the matter!
In his seventh piano cabaret program, the musician and cabaret artist recommends himself as a storyteller who extracts absurdly funny incidents from everyday life with all its inconsistencies and condenses them in the double sense of the word. Bodo Wartke takes an exceptionally playful, linguistically and verbally acrobatic, dancing look at the phenomena of our coexistence. In doing so, he draws on the rich fund of the German language and lifts many a vocabulary with a fine sense.
Problems with the printer turn out to be an identity emergency of the technical device stuck in the wrong body. The "egg hole" known from nursery rhymes triggers a hair-raisingly abstruse and at the same time philosophical stream of consciousness in the drowsy musician. And last but not least, the cabaret artist develops well-known tongue twisters into poems and short anarchic stories, which he raps and performs with piano or cajon in various musical genres - tongue twister slams full of rhythm 'n' poetry.
Once again, the stage artist proves himself to be a pop and highly culturally adept music entertainer who samples his way through our everyday lives both linguistically and musically. Explicitly in his tongue-in-cheek ode to the "mixtape" and the love hits of the eighties. Provocatively sarcastic in his parody of the bad habit of "mansplaining", here as rock 'n' roll. Comedic in his excursion into twelve-tone music, which the musician celebrates as an expression of the democratic idea. But also lyrical in a classical adaptation, in which the pianist takes us up to the moon in a tender ode and quietly offers a change of perspective by looking back.
And so there are always serious tones mixed in with all the lightness. The singer-songwriter takes a thoughtful look at unhealthy patterns of behavior learned at an early age that can determine our lives. He takes a critical look at misogyny and the radical interpretation of religious dogma. But the hopeful view is not missing either: What could our world look like if the many sore points of humanity were overcome?
On the way there, there will be many a slip of the tongue and stumble. Bodo Wartke welcomes them, because they are part of getting to the point of wonder.
