Wildenrath The Ensemble Pomp-A-Dur revives the heyday of Viennese coffee house music on Mother’s Day. The ladies are supported by tenor Stefan Lex.
The long breaks or restrictions due to the corona pandemic seem to be over for the most part. Without art in general and music in particular, Wegberg’s cultural life had become quiet. Concert halls and theaters are now open again – still in compliance with certain protective regulations.

And when the cultural promotion group Opus 512 invites you to the Hotel Sternzeit in Wildenrath at 4 p.m. on Mother’s Day, May 8th, at 4 p.m. for coffee house music, the visitors can look forward to something extraordinary. Because the ensemble Pomp-A-Dur will enchant you with wonderful melodies.

A bit of pomp – for the costumes – a bit of Madame and the cheerful key of A major give the ensemble its name. A unique, unmistakable sound combined with a fine pinch of humor make Pomp-A-Dur’s performances so impressively endearing. A top-class harmonious team of individual experts has come together here, which – in addition to the visual charms – forms a very special body of sound.

The ensemble stands for cheerful salon music. This includes the most beautiful melodies by Kreuder, Lehar, Mackeben, Raymond, Stolz, Winkler from the heyday of coffee house music, but also virtuoso character pieces, dance music and opera and operetta potpourris as well as musical melodies. The listeners melt away when the ensemble fills the salon with amorous sounds. Because when Sigrid Althoff, the “boss”, and her sisters in the Philharmonic take hold of the strings and keys, it is not only virtuoso, but also grandiose to look at and conjures up that cheerful, sentimental atmosphere that is otherwise only found in Berlin or Viennese coffee houses .

The ladies get musical support from the male side: Stefan Lex, a master of his craft, joins the class of Rudolf Schock and Fritz Wunderlich. The radiantly lyrical tenor fascinates the audience with his wonderful voice, his charm and his subtly lively and humorous moderation.
