Two violins, a cello, a piano - and an excess of creative energy: Salut Salon are "Hamburg's most charming cultural export" (Hamburger Abendblatt). For over 20 years, the four virtuosos have been performing their "Masterpieces of 'classical' comedy" (The New York Times) in the most renowned concert halls worldwide, thrilling their audience with outrageous feats between Vivaldi and vocal acrobatics, tango and crime scene, rap and Rachmaninoff - "Wonderful!" (The Economic Times India).
With their new program "Heimat," Salut Salon will celebrate the finale of a concert trilogy starting in 2025: Following "Love" and "Dreams," the next great, almost all-encompassing theme is coming. Because: What exactly is Heimat? Is it a place? Tradition? A feeling? Are they the people surrounding us? Or perhaps words, languages, sounds? With the dreamlike self-evidence with which the four musicians transform pieces from all corners of the world into this wonderful concert evening, they also provide their very own answer: Salut Salon are at home in the world - and their Heimat is music.

Noble Composition presents: "One night with ABBA in a large cast"

The basic cast is expanded with a string quartet and brass. An exhilarating show with voices that are very close to the original!

“One night with ABBA” ABSOLUTELY LIVE!!!

NOBLE COMPOSITION stands for a formation of professional live and studio musicians from the national and international music scene, who are among the most successful bands and orchestras in Europe.
They love and live the music of ABBA! That is exactly why they have fulfilled this musical wish. During their active years from 1972 to 1982, ABBA released eight studio albums and four compilations. According to their music label Universal Music, the band has sold around 400 million records to date, making them one of the best-selling artists worldwide.
On the occasion of the anniversary of the legendary band "ABBA" (band founded in 1972), this marks the start of an exciting concert year 2022 for the band.
You will hear the greatest hits of ABBA: The Winner Takes It All, Dancing Queen, Thank You For The Music, Mamma Mia, Money, Money, Money, Honey, Honey, Super Trouper, Knowing Me Knowing You, Fernando, Voulez-Vous, I Have A Dream, Chiquitita, Waterloo, Voulez-Vous, and many more.
“We will celebrate the ABBA comeback properly, and for that, we engage the best musicians and front singers for a big concert show.”
For the perfect ABBA feeling, the two singers Linda Mikulec (Agnetha) and Simone Kerchner (Anni Fried) will take the stage. Linda has already sung with schlager and pop stars like Helene Fischer, Unheilig, The Kelly Family, Vicky Leandros, Paul Potts, and Robin Gibb, and has toured musically on the ZDF Dream Ship across the seas. Simone conquered the musical stages after her music studies with lead roles in Evita, Marlene Dietrich, or Moulin Rouge and toured with Chris de Burgh. The role of Björn will be played by Florian Brettschneider, who has won multiple national and international competitions as a guitarist. Benny will be represented by DD Döhrn on piano. The band is completed by bandleader and drummer Thomas Bleser, one of the most well-known “all-round drummers” in Germany, as well as “BASS PROFESSOR” Andreas Düro (bass).
“The ABBA fever has inspired us, and as full professionals, we had a blast developing the show. All songs were arranged in the original sound, and with the crystal-clear voices of Linda and Simone, we get awfully close to the pop giants from Sweden,” promises bandleader and drummer Thomas Bleser. Of course, the stage will also transform into the ABBA design of the 70s. Neon effects and Benny's illuminated show piano set the show in the right light, the stage outfit and the choreography make the evening perfect. All the big hits from "Waterloo" to "Mamma Mia" will be heard. “One Night With ABBA” will be a concert experience for all ABBA fans. If fans also come dressed in 70s style to the concert, the party will be perfect.”

“NOBLE COMPOSITION” guarantees the highest level! Their references speak for themselves.

She is infamous, she is unique, and she is definitely crazy. She doesn't just have a green thumb, she has two of them. "Gardening without much fuss" is not only her motto, but also the title of her current live tour.

We're talking about Katrin Iskam, a trained and active nurse, but above all, the hottest discovery in the local gardening scene. Because who digs, shovels, and grubs around in rubber boots and a nightgown? That's right, only "Katrinchen," as she is lovingly called by her fans. And there are quite a lot of fans now. Almost 200,000 alone on her Instagram page @katrinsgarten, which won the 1st place in the German Garden Book Award. The self-taught gardener is a successful garden influencer and SPIEGEL best-selling author (2022 "With Wit, Charm, and Method - The Slightly Different Garden Book"; 2023 "Go Big or Go Home: Garden Design with @katrinsgarten"; Book no. 3 "With Heart & Fork Through Katrin's Gardening Year 2025" will follow in late summer). Born and raised in Altmark, she now lives in Himbergen in the Lüneburg Heath. Can a place of residence sound more like a garden? Hardly.

And that's exactly where it is: her garden. Her retreat. The origin of all her creative katrinsgarten constructions. And the nucleus of countless incredible stories. There, a nightly snail rescue mission nearly ends up at the police station. And if the natural fertilizer unintentionally lands on the Christmas tree, "Head Gardener" Tyson, Katrin's dachshund, is overjoyed at most. Together, the two form an unbeatable team when it comes to planning, caring, and nurturing. Then there's Waldemar, the godly husband, who prefers to locate the Sedum plant in the chicken coop. And when Katrin recommends "stabbing," it's always with the best intentions. In "Gardening without much fuss," Katrin Iskam serves up plenty of practical tips and just as many funny anecdotes. "Happy Garden" in a completely different way. And in case someone should ever get lost and end up at her doorstep in Himbergen, "Katrinchen" also has a down-to-earth and preventive piece of advice ready for that situation: Break-ins are pointless here, the money is in the garden.

All of this and much more is part of "Gardening without much fuss," the live program by and with Katrin Iskam.
