Thomas Borchert - If I sing...

Yesterday my mum and I went to Thomas Borchert's "If I sing... - Meine größten Musicalerfolge" concert at the Altonaer Theater in Hamburg. And it was totally awesome!!! ♥
The music was wonderful and we also laughed so much. You just have to love his little stories. *gg* And he made us sing too, because "singing makes you happy". :D So much fun! *lol*
 I also really liked his guest star, Carin Filipcic. :-) I had heard her before on 1 or 2 recordings, but never actually knowingly paid her much attention... She has a great, very powerful voice. *wow* Thomas did a couple of duets with her and she also got to sing 2 or 3 solo songs. She kinda messed up "Totale Finsternis" and then did some improvising, which was hilarious. *lol* :D

This is the only picture I managed to take, unfortunately, and the quality is really rotten. :-(



So I stole these from Facebook. ;-)






I also found this video on YouTube, which is kind of an official trailer for the concert tour with little song snippets. It brings back lovely memories. <3 His voice!! *bows*




Thank you for an amazing evening, Mr. Borchert, and please come back very soon!! ♥

Wow. Very cool. I so like "Tanz der Vampire". Didn't know that he is on stage for 20 years!!!

Tanz der Vampire FTW!!! :D
And Thomas will always be my favourite Krolock. ♥

Yeah, 20 years is quite a long time indeed.

Whoa, I'm kind of jealous. :D I've always wanted to see some of his soloprograms but I've never been in the same country when he's performing them. Besides, Carin Filipcic is one of my favourite actresses ever.

It was so good! :D
This was only the second time I've seen him solo too, sadly. The other one was "Spontainment" 4 years ago (which was just hilarous *lol*)...

Like I wrote I didn't really know Carin before, but will definitely keep an eye on her from now on. :-)

I saw Carin many times in Rebecca in Vienna and once in a Christmas concert, and she was absolutely the best thing in Rudolf: Affaire Mayerling. Her voice is indeed a *wow*.

Meh, I miss seeing Thomas in something. Could someone please build a big international airport in St. Gallen?

I love his solo program! (have seen it in Oberhausen). Great to hear he was that good in Hamburg, and hopefully he'll come back next year with If I Sing.

It really is a lovely program. Glad you got to see it too. :-)
