“Marlene” – Ute Lemper's Rendez-Vous with Marlene Dietrich – Humility & Models X
Today's Music
Saturday, 29 July 2023
7.30 pm, Gstaad Festival Tent
This is the story of a telephone call … that became a singing tour! A 25-year-old budding artist named Ute Lemper made a phone call to a legend of the international scene, Marlene Dietrich, the Berlin icon of the 1920s, who was at the end of her career. A three-hour exchange triggered by a postcard in which the young singer apologises for having been bombarded by the media as the heir to the great Marlene, and which today, when Ute Lemper has in turn become an icon of the music world, serves as the basis for a very personal recital.
