Sunday Song – Richie Beirach – Sidney Corbett
Friendship happens often on the same level of frequencies. But it is a bliss if two composers and musicians find each other, at least for a little while. Sidney Corbett commemorates his dear friend Richie Beirach, who passed away on the 26th of January 26. His jazz mastery was way above piano playing, it was deepest poetry and as easy as it might sound – truly speaking from the heart.
Die Rinnsteinprinzessin – Rainer Bielfeldt
Es ist kaum zu glauben: 2026 wird die „Rinnsteinprinzessin“ von Rainer Bielfeldt und Edith Jeske vierzig Jahre alt. Und sie klingt, als wäre sie erst gestern geschrieben worden. Unsere Welt kann noch so stark wanken – Lieder sind stabil. Gerade in unserer Verletzlichkeit sind wir unverwundbar. Wir feiern mit diesem Jubiläum den Übergang in das Neue Jahr 2026.
In Gedenken an Franz Grundheber – Matthias Veit
Im Mittelpunkt stand für ihn das Wort. Einer der bedeutendsten Sänger und Wortgestalter ist in diesem Jahr von uns gegangen. Zu Ehren und in Gedenken an Franz Grundheber erzählt der Liedpianist Matthias Veit aus Grundhebers Leben. Das Lied war ihm sehr wichtig, auch wenn nur wenig Zeit für Liedaufnahmen blieb. Eine der wenigen Lied CDs mit Grundheber, die “Lieder einer Reise”, hat Matthias mit ihm aufnehmen können.
