Serious cancellation for the Geltinger ambush: Two days before his performance, the Munich songwriter Konstantin Wecker had to cancel. The three young talents he sponsors use the opportunity to present themselves on stage without an alarm clock - with success.
Gelting - Two days before the live stream concert from Tamara Banez, Miriam Green and Sarah Straub, ambush operator Assunta Tammelleo received a momentous cancellation. The well-known Munich singer-songwriter Konstantin Wecker had to forego appearing with the young talents he supported due to an illness.
Two days before the concert: Konstantin Wecker has to cancel due to illness
In addition, due to water damage, no audience except technicians and journalists was allowed in the culture stage. But in retrospect, the negative news turned out to be a stroke of luck. Because so the attention of those listeners who followed the concert on the screen of their computer was directed solely to the musical qualities of the three women.
Miriam Green shone with an instrument that is rarely heard on concert stages. “The cor anglais is usually only used in large symphony orchestras,” explained the Munich native. Now these sounds accompanied partly melancholy love songs, partly committed texts. Tamara Banez, Miriam Green and Sarah Straub played together for the first time in this line-up on Wednesday evening, but also gave themselves space for solo performances on the piano.
Geltinger ambush: Influence of the sponsor is noticeable in the three musicians
From then on, the influence of the sponsor was not only felt in the interpretation of well-known pieces such as “I sing because I have a song” or “Say no”. There was also no lack of political appeals that evening: Tamara Banez dedicated a song to the “Fridays for Future” movement and took a clear position against the deportation of refugees. At the end of the concert, the lively feminism hymn "Sisters" and the song "Girls Power", written especially for the evening, were followed by snappy declarations of war against male-dominated hierarchies.
Demands such as “The world must become female, otherwise it will go to the dogs” and “Girls in power!” Came across so charming that by then at the latest no one really missed the participation of the top songwriter Konstantin Wecker.
