LACHEN & LAUSCHEN - Denis Fischer: Fischer singt Cohen

Leonard Cohen's songs deal with love, hate, longing, fulfillment, the punishing God, the loving woman and vice versa. Interpreted by Denis Fischer, they go straight to the heart and send the audience into a euphoric frenzy between goosebumps and emotion.
The subtle arrangements and Carsten Sauer's powerfully pointed piano accompaniment give Fischer's voice and the poetic language of the lyrics plenty of space. Complemented by a handful of his own songs inspired by Cohen, Fischer creates a highly emotional and finely balanced show that courageously relies entirely on the magic of small gestures. He celebrates "Hallelujah" as a delicately broken hymn or "I'm your man" as a grandiose, charming flirtation with the audience.
Denis Fischer celebrates melancholy as the elixir of life, tipping his hat to the great Cohen with casual elegance and breathtaking aplomb.
With a great sense of theatricality and interpretation, he breathes excitingly fresh life into the legendary songs and shows us a portrait of the artist as a young man - bitter, sarcastic, but also sexy, blessed with a "golden voice" and the palatable humor of cheerful despair.
He is cool and fragile, wild and elegant, pop and chanson with the ideal mixture of drama and a wink.
Take this waltz...!
