The program at a glance
23.06. The Evergreens
The Evergreens present classics from the 50s – 80s with the aim to put a smile on the faces of their listeners.

Their repertoire includes titles by Elvis, The Beatles, Grönemeyer, Westernhagen, Joe Cocker, Udo Jürgens and
much more.

07.07. Talking Horns
The four gentlemen of the Talking Horns “tell” highly entertaining stories from the past, the present and the future with their brass and wooden instruments as part of the SOUNDSEEING sound art festival. Head and
Bellies are served equally: the “average listener” (if there is one at all) has just as much fun as jazz connoisseurs, friends of chamber music or those who love it when it “grooves”. The concert will take place as part of the 2021 Soundseeing Festival.
The festival is supported by the Ministry of Culture and Science NRW, Kunststiftung NRW, LWL-Kulturstiftung,
Gelsenwasser Foundation
