Roger Cicero - Cicero Sings Sinatra - Live in Hamburg

Agathe von Trapp, the eldest daughter of a well-known musical family, overcomes many obstacles to pursue her musical career and move to the United States.

This concert is a wish come true for Helene Fischer: the singer presents her personal selection of German and international Christmas songs in the atmospheric ballroom of the Vienna Hofburg. Her guests and partners are the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra from London, one of the world's most renowned symphony orchestras, and the Vienna Boys' Choir, among others. It took two years to prepare this concert. The program includes classics such as "Merry Christmas Everywhere", "Ave Maria", "Es ist ein Ros entsprungen" and "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht". There are also contemporary songs such as "In der Weihnachtsbäckerei", "Last Christmas" and "The Power Of Love".

A new open-air spectacle under the stars brings Schlager queen Andrea Berg home to Aspach, where 35,000 fans transform her village into a music metropolis. Host Florian Silbereisen goes behind the scenes, at rehearsals, in wardrobe, and at Berg’s family home, to capture her pre-show jitters, wardrobe changes, and rituals (“Uncle Piti” on hand, her lucky charm, and mother by her side). On “Sternennacht,” Andrea and guests like DJ Ötzi and Xavier Naidoo perform her biggest hits in an intimate celebration of life, love, and music.

Eugen and Roger Cicero were father and son, but above all they were extraordinary artists. While Eugen achieved fame as a piano virtuoso in the 1960s and performed with star singers such as Ella Fitzgerald and Shirley Bassey, Roger filled huge concert halls years later as one of Germany's most gifted singers. Their life stories are inextricably interwoven and show fascinating parallels - genius paired with an unparalleled passion, the overcoming of boundaries, the balancing act between commercial success and artistic integrity and ultimately the tragic outcome that still shakes the music world today.

4.5 million records sold, founding member of Söhne Mannheims and five-time Echo winner: Xavier Naidoo is one of Germany's most successful musicians. Filmmaker Harold Woetzel - himself from Mannheim - accompanied him. He has known Xavier Naidoo for many years and is therefore closer to the artist than almost any other journalist. It is a portrait of a great star, of his incredible love of his homeland and his roots in Baden-Württemberg's second largest city. The film shows how a song lyric is created from a small sound idea, shows Xavier Naidoo's collaboration with his closest friend Michael Herberger in the Mannheim studio. And it shows what an incredible success the idea of turning a group of friends of young multicultural Mannheim musicians into the Sons of Mannheim has become.

Roger Cicero - Live

The night of July 12th 2010 was a memorable evening in the history of the Montreux Jazz Festival. The theme of the night was "Singin' and Swingin'" and it starred Roger Cicero and his fantastic Big Band under the guidance of Lutz Krajenski. Cicero and Hs Band gave an electrifying performance with a mixture of swing ballads, seventies' soul and danceable grooves featuring classics like "Zieh die Schuh aus", "Nicht artgerecht" and "Wenn sie dich fragt" and the English adaptations of his hits "Murphys Gesetz" ("Murphy's Law") and "Ich had das Gefühl für dich verlor'n" ("That You And I Feeling"). Roger Cicero enchanted the crowd and his musicians thrilled this discerning audience. What a show!

Unique and grandiose - these are probably the two adjectives that best describe what took place in March 2010 in Baden-Baden's Club Casino: a very special acoustic concert - not only because Rea Garvey and his band managed to create an intimate atmosphere and an overwhelming mood. The charismatic frontman and singer proves once again very impressively that he has both entertainment qualities and the special talent to truly touch people with his music. It is the unique mixture of Rea Garvey's sensitive voice, his charmingly idiosyncratic wit, which always creeps in, even though the Irish-born singer now speaks very good German, and the great musicality of the band that made for a magical and highly entertaining evening.

Now, an impenetrable mystery shrouds the haunted mansion, and, as repugnance gradually turns into affection, only true love could break the spell.

Lukas Maler is a butcher. Albeit more out of necessity than out of passion: As the “Karajan with the scalpel”, his vocation was always forensic medicine. When he accidently destroyed all evidence against the “24-hour-killer”, his career as a coroner was done for.
