From Nazi-era Jazz to East-German Surf Rock, from David Bowie to the Love Parade: Berlin has a musical history like no other city. Now for the first time, you can read all its stories in one beautiful book: Berlin Sampler.
The ultimate guide to Berlin’s musical history launches on April 25th in Kaffee Burger. With a reading by author Théo Lessour followed a panel discussion starring Gudrun Gut (Monika Enterprise), Tobias Rapp (Der Spiegel), Alexandra Droener (de:bug) and led by D. Strauss (Exberliner), this is a must-attend event and a must-have book for all fans of Berlin and its multi-faceted musical history.
Too often neglected by Berlin’s historians and biographers, music has been just as central as art, film and architecture in the formation of the German capital’s unique identity. In Berlin Sampler, Théo Lessour plugs the reader into the city’s musical life – tracing with verve and savvy over one hundred years of musical works made-in-Berlin and the events that shaped them.
