Unitel - Max Raabe and Palast Orchester Lets Do It (2016)

Welcome to a time travel to the music of the 1920s and 1930s from both sides of the Atlantic, including songs by Cole Porter, Harold Arlen, Kurt Weill, and more. Charismatic, dry-humored Max Raabe appears as a soloist with the Palast Orchestra in his new show in Berlin. Enjoy high style and humor with the German crooner's salute to the timeless melodies of the 1920s. Dashing, dapper and debonair, German crooner Max Raabe believes the timeless melodies and songs of the era have an inherent magic. Impeccably dressed in white tie and tails, he is joined by Palast Orchester, which he formed with other students in 1986 while attending the Berlin University of the Arts. That the songs from the 1920s and 30s have an inherent magic has always been known to “Ballroom Blitz” (Time Out New York) Max Raabe. In his new concert recording “Let's do it”, Max Raabe and his orchestra, the Palast Orchester impress their audience with a wide array of works in English, such as “Millions of Kisses and Millions of Smiles”, “Singin' In The Bathtub”, and “Cubanacan”. When it comes down to musical presentation, Max Raabe & Palast Orchester are unrivalled, regardless the country of origin of the songs. Alongside the musical perfection, this evening from the famous Admiralspalast in Berlin displays all facets of an intelligently choreographed concert. Whether through “Stormy Weather” or “Dort tanzt Lulu”, the swinging rhythms of “Let's do it” or “Du hast mich nie geliebt” in waltz, Max Raabe & Palast Orchester are enchanting with music from both sides of the Atlantic. As The New York Times put it - Max Raabe is simply“Fascinating!”
