Comedian

Ein besonderer Abend erwartet das Publikum im Ernst-Reuter-Saal: Die Voraufführung des neuen Stücks der Berlin Comedian Harmonists! In einer rasanten Revue kämpfen die sechs Herren im Frack heldenhaft mit verrückten Verwicklungen und müssen Parallelen zwischen den 1920ern und 2020ern erkennen.

This double vinyl is the 4th part of the Comedian Harmonists Story released by EMI Electrola in 1977. On side A we find ballads and love songs that didn't make it on the first 3 editions. In 1935, the German Nazis banned the Jewish singers, they moved to Vienna and founded the Comedy Harmonists, their work is presented on side B. The remaining members in Berlin found 3 new singers, they had to change their name to Meister-Sextett, we can hear them on side C. On side D we have later recordings by former members of the Comedian Harmonists.

There is so much to tell about the Comedian Harmonists and their recordings – where to start? Most people will know some of their hits. In 1975 a 4 hours documentary about the Comedian Harmonists was broadcast in German TV. Public demand then led to the reissue of their work on 3 double LPs. This second double LP emphasises the rich variety of their arrangements and vocal artistry: some of their hits, classical compositions, traditional "Volkslieder" in high German or dialect, 2 Italian songs, songs from their film appearances, one of them in French, an adaptation of "Night and Day" written by Cole Porter. If you are an arranger or a singer in a choir or band, you really have a lot to study here.

Seinfeld is a working stand-up comic again. COMEDIAN is a candidly revealing, intimately observed, and often very funny look at what it takes to be a comedian. On-stage, Jerry delivers his hilarious brand of observational humor. Off-stage, he struggles with difficult material, confronts self-doubt, revels in small successes, and accepts help and support from friends and colleagues, including Colin Quinn, Ray Romano, Chris Rock, Garry Shandling, Jay Leno, and Bill Cosby. COMEDIAN also discovers the sharp wit of rising young comic Orny Adams – outspoken, insecure, and fanatical about becoming the "next big thing." What emerge are two fascinating journeys by two contrasting personalities who have some surprising parallels.
