"The Voice" - once you have heard Thomas Quasthoff, you will never forget his voice. And it almost doesn't matter whether it's the memory of his legendary performances as a bass-baritone in classical concerts or his successful forays into jazz or whether Thomas Quasthoff speaks as a reciter and narrator: this incredibly perfect sound with the dark chocolate core always remains in the ear and in the heart - and that's wonderful!
The reading with excerpts from field post letters, musically accompanied by the Amatis Trio, is a moving testimony to the suffering of war, to inner and outer battles, to violence and death - but also to humanity, to being human and to the people themselves in the midst of the inferno.
