A love triangle follows, which - wild, dramatic and romantic - isfinally recorded in an epistolary novel. And that in the musical of the twenty-first century, just like in Germany in1774. In the end, it's on the stage of the Bad Hersfeld Festival - where GOETHE! 2020 premiered - so not just to payhomage to an exceptional talent, but quite fundamentally to the exchange between historical-personal truth and thepoetry itself.The result is a music that is not historical, but - renouncing the pastiche so often glorified in music theater - acrossover of symphonic musical and pop culture. Goethe's portrayed career, his victories and defeats are - despite hisprominent name - universal: After all, doesn't every lover become an artist, feeling in verses, pictures and melodieswhile trying to put his love into words? Art helps us to process the big issues in life: That's how it was with youngWerther and Philipp Buttner as Johann Goethe on the musical stage. The bridge between the two is created here bythe music - with melodies that fit into our century and rhymes that fit into Goethe's. A historical world emerges that iscontemporary and can only really be felt in the here and now.In fact, GOETHE! Hardly any dialogue: there is a lot of feeling and therefore a lot of singing - both things that can bewonderfully immortalized with a complete recording. Captured live, GOETHE! - with Philipp Buttner (Aladdin, DasWunder von Bern) as Johann and Abla Alaoui (Miss Saigon, Mamma Mia!) as Lotte - on July 1st on double CD. Beforethe play begins its second season on July 15 on the well-known stage in Bad Hersfeld, fans and those who will bethere soon can say in advance: Welcome to the show!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40348028436577,"sku":"9120006684552","price":17.63,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/products\/orig_10098106_1140026_jpg.jpg?v=1706800134","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9120006684552-goethe-das-musical","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
