LOLA MARIE & LES CHATS NOIRS evoke a bittersweet era in which cabaret songs and Johann Strauss waltzes coexisted, and invite you to join them on a musical exploration of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Sit back and enjoy the nostalgic memories of an unforgettable decade that began in 1881 in Montmartre, Paris, when the world-famous cabaret "Le Chat Noir" had just been founded by Rodolphe Salis.
The members of the ensemble perform a wide range of repertoire and musical styles. The colourful programme includes classical repertoire, film music and songs from musical comedies, as well as French, German and other European chansons from 1881 (Paris) to 1939 (Berlin).
An exciting concert show, at times romantic, witty, exhilarating and spicy with a few unexpected twists.
The colourful programme includes works by Hanns Eisler, Kurt Weill, Jacques Brel, Marlene Dietrich, Zarah Leander, songs from musical comedies as well as French and German chansons from 1881 (Paris) to 1939 (Berlin) and original songs by Cynthia Knoch and bajanist/composer/arranger Foppe Jacobi.
