Der Detektiv und das Saxophon

Armed with saxophone, organ and drums, the music is sharp and far removed from the usual Christmas songs.
The actor and narrator Jo Jung, well-known from film, television and radio, delivers clearly insidious lyrics for the festival of love in his distinctive voice. His multifaceted and captivating reading juggles effortlessly with all kinds of dialects and brings the stories to life with a wealth of gestures.

Christmas time, oh you secret time!
After the collective singing of merry carols in a minor key, there are a few cases to crack:
Where does the red trail in the snow lead - and did the bang come from the champagne, or ...?
A bottle with dubious contents and a Santa Claus on the wrong track, corpses under the tree and angels without wings, tricky mix-ups and much more.

Saxophonist Ruth Sabadino and her criminal jazz band Boogaloo play an outrageously cool Christmas groove that will have Knecht Ruprecht shaking in his boots. In ping pong style, the lyrics and music keep throwing the "cases" at each other, playing dramatic twists and comic punchlines and combining with Jo Jung's incredibly versatile voice to create a total work of art.
