Premiere: Die Blume von Hawaii

January 21, 2017 By Ian Sidden

Deutsch

Heute Abend im Opernhaus Dortmund findet die Premiere von Paul Abrahams Die Blume von Hawaii statt. Ich singe die Kombi-Rolle Kanako Hilo und Kaluna (Kanako spricht und Kaluna singt, obwohl praktisch bin ich Kanako Hilo die ganze Zeit).

Wie Roxy und ihr Wunderteam ist die Musik eine Jazz und Operette Mischung. Man kann klassische Stimmen und Stepptanz von der Bühne hören, aber es gibt viel mehr dazu zu erleben. Viele Farben. Viel Humor. Viel, das schön und kreativ ist.

Ich freue mich sehr auf die Premiere. Toi toi toi an allen Beteiligten!

Tonight in Opernhaus Dortmund is the premiere of Paul Abraham’s Die Blume von Hawaii. I’m singing a combination role of Kanako Hilo and Kaluna (Kanako talks while Kaluna sings, but practically speaking I’m Kanako Hilo the whole time if that makes any sense).

Like Roxy und ihr Wunderteam, this contains a mixture of jazz and operetta musical influences. The audience will hear classical voices and tap dancing very near to one another, but there’s much more to experience. Many colors. Lots of humor. Much beauty and creativity.

I’m very much looking forward to it. Toi toi toi to all!

Here’s one I’ve been looking forward to for awhile. Tonight at Opernhaus Dortmund, we’re premiering Frédegonde for the first time in Germany. It’s a work inspired from the early history of the Merovingians in what is now France and the ongoing feud between two of the queens, Brunhild and Frédegonde. The work was composed by […]
