Spicy , raw and unadorned version of music from a time when Europa stood on the brink of an abyss .
Norway ’ s uncrowned queen of cabaret Tora Augestad steals the audience back to Berlin during the interwar period . Cabaret as entertainment and art form played a significant and fabled role in those fertile and fatal years of European history .
From Bar to Barricades follows the threads of Arnold Schönberg ’ s cabaret songs , Brettl-Lieder , with servings of the 20th century ’ s most cutting-edge vocal work Pierrot Lunaire , also by Schönberg . In his search for topicality and a satirical view of his time it was biting in its irony and demanded honesty in its performance . Joining Tora Augestad for this concert is the versatile pianist Trygve Brøske in addition to her own ensemble Music for a While .
Music for a While Tora Augestad vocal Stian Carstensen accordion , pedal steel guitar Mathias Eick trumpet Martin Taxt tuba Pål Hausken drums , percussion
Trygve Brøske piano , pump organ , melodica
