Tauben vergiften im Park

An evening of songs by Georg Kreisler, the man who wrote the cheerful little waltz about poisoning pigeons in the park and made a career out of the gap between a pretty tune and what it is actually saying. Bernard Liebermann and Thierry Gelloz walk through the musical work of that genius — the house's own word — which in practice means an evening where the audience laughs first and works out what it laughed at somewhere on the way home. In a granary loft with a piano, it is the format the room was made for.
