Kempten - Martin Kälberer is happy to be on stage again at his concert in the Kultbox.
White sneakers, no socks, the legs of the anthracite-colored linen suit rolled up a bit, a casual jacket over it, a silver-gray beard with a bobbing goatee and a nice smile.
So Martin Kälberer jumped onto the discreetly blue illuminated stage of the BigBOX ALLGÄU and greeted the guests with a beaming and satisfied smile.
They had previously had to do a slalom at the entrance outside, bag check, vaccination certificate, Luca app, next check, possibly registration with slip and then box office.
It was a special feeling to dive back into the catacombs of the cult box and a temple of the long-missed culture after such a long time.
That's why Martin Kälberer was also beaming: Finally another opportunity to present his art in front of an audience.
He had also been able to gain good things from the pandemic.
A journey into the self, trying out a lot, with music and various instruments.
Martin Kälberer celebrated the evening on his extensive, unusual instruments: rattles, whisk, vase, various handpans - a kind of steal drum - and an electric piano.
Spherical sounds, soft and sometimes a little louder, with sensitive voice modulation.
The people in the cult box, which was well-filled despite the Corona requirements, were trapped and thanked them with a lot of applause.
After the break, Martin Kälberer revealed a little story from the backstage area.
"Didn't know that you can whistle through the mask," he said with a mischievous grin and added two encores.
After more than two hours, everyone ended the evening with beautiful cultural and sound experiences in their luggage.
