Brecht's poetry set to divinely, godlessly mad music, 28 Nov 2002

By	Dobester (Istanbul, Turkey) - See all my reviews

Heiner Goebbels' interpretations of Hanns Eisler's compositions, whether jazzy orchestral fantasies or songs around Bert Brecht's powerful poetry, are superbly enjoyable. They seem to combine Weimar cabaret, mid-century American metropolitan modern classical music like Gershwin and something altogether alien, other-worldly.

For this listener, there are strong similarities to the Tom Waits of the Swordfishtrombones-Raindogs-Franks Wild Years period: an intoxicating blend of deadpan humour, love and tenderness and ascerbic social observation. Plus wildly quirky music and intrusive found sounds. The whole is NOT a chaotic mess, but rather something of great charm.

The interview with Goebbels and the full lyrics make the disc as much a pleasure to read as to listen to. Brecht's poems give the songs a depth of meaning rare in much - most? - modern music.

This is a superb disc and highly recommended to anyone interested in the music and culture of another, less well-known, more human Germany of fifty-odd years ago.
