The ravishing German-born
chanteuse Ute Lemper is best known for her stage performances in musicals
such as "Chicago" and "Cabaret" and for championing the music of the
German cabaret. Her interpretations of the darkly beautiful songs
of the Weimar era are laced with a scarlet ribbon of vampish ribaldry
and acerbic wit. The daring lasciviousness and estranged yearning
expressed by songwriters Kurt Weill, Berthold Brecht, Jacques Brel
and others spring to life at Lemper's touch.
Accompanied by her quartet,
she will perform pieces from her new album "But One Day..." as well
as selected old favorites from her diverse repertoire.
World Music is funded
in part by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency which
also receives support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
