Volksbarde Heino will be giving concerts in numerous churches starting in November. The singer has a famous colleague with him on his tour.
According to the announcement, Heino has in his luggage the “most beautiful sacred songs”, which he chose himself and dressed in a “festive musical robe”. The tour is called “Die Himmel rühmen” after the song of the same name by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). Heino’s baritone voice is also used in interpretations of world-famous songs such as “Ave Verum Corpus” by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), “Ave Maria” by Franz Schubert (1797-1828) or “Guten Abend, gut’ Nacht” by Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) sound.
Heino is accompanied by Anita Hegerland
Heino is supported by organist Franz Lambert on his Wersi organ, who with his “dream orchestra” is supposed to provide the right soundscape for Heino’s voice. Heino is also accompanied by the Norwegian singer Anita Hegerland (62), who once celebrated huge successes as a ten-year-old child with the hit classic “It’s nice to be in the world” together with Roy Black (1943-1991). Hegerland later also appeared on stage alongside her ex-partner, world star Mike Oldfield (70), with whom she has two children.
Ticket sales have already started at all known advance booking offices. The singer Heino, born Heinz Georg Kramm in Düsseldorf, is considered one of the most successful musicians in the country. According to his own information, he had already sold more than 50 million records by 2013 alone. He celebrated his breakthrough, mostly as an interpreter of well-known folk songs, in the mid-1960s. Heino’s best-known hits include “Blue Blooms the Gentian” and “Black Brown is the Hazelnut”.
