Frank Fröhlich inspires with Blue Hour” in the monastery on June 28th

On Saturday, June 28th at 7:30 p.m., the picturesque Tempzin Monastery invites you to a very special music and literary experience. The well-known artist Frank Fröhlich, who likes to describe himself as the “guitarist of the stars”, will present his new program “Blue Hour”. In this unconventional performance, Fröhlich combines virtuoso guitar music with humorous anecdotes and poems, making the audience marvel and smile.

The Dresden native impresses with a mix of melancholy and playfulness. In his program he combines his own compositions with texts by well-known writers such as Joachim Ringelnatz, Wilhelm Busch and Erich Kästner. The guitar is more than just an instrument for him - it becomes a narrator who conveys the human questions and solid stories of the “Blue Hour”. "The guitar can do everything! You just have to let it..." said Fröhlich on one of his last occasions.

An ode to the “Blue Hour”

The “Blue Hour” refers to the magical time between sunset and total darkness. It not only captivates painters and photographers, but also inspires musicians. In his new album, which bears the same title, Frank Fröhlich addresses the connection between melancholy and playfulness. With humorous pieces like “Blues i Denn” and “Forelle in Blue” he creates an upbeat atmosphere, while at the same time he finds thoughtful sounds like “Der Mond ist aufgehen” and “Nachtgesang”.

Fröhlich is becoming more and more of a master who captivates his audience not only with his musical skills on his Hanika guitar, but also with funny presentations and poems. A special highlight of the evening will be the title piece “Blue Hour,” in which saxophonist Volker Schlott accompanies him. In doing so, he shows once again how music and poetry are interwoven.

Music and literature in dialogue

The connection between music and literature is a topic that has been discussed for generations. As Deutschlandfunk Kultur reports, many writers since the Romantic period have seen the aesthetic power of music as the key to the human soul. Rousseau's question of whether music and language emerged together continues to question our perception of art and culture.

This discussion can also be found in Fröhlich's work, as he brings the complex emotions and questions of life into an appealing musical form. His unique approach to the “Blue Hour” will both move listeners and make them think, once again transforming Tempzin Monastery into a place of creative exchange.

For anyone who has a knack for exceptional cultural experiences, this concert is a must-see! Stop by and let yourself be enchanted by Frank Fröhlich's charismatic performance. Further information can be found in SVZ and on Frank Fröhlich's website.
