Elle & Kapelle Ciao Cacao - Schokohits frisch von der Plantage — Mit Degustation feinster Edelschokoladen

In the organizer's words:

"Inspiring, surprising and upsetting about chocolate: With 'Ciao Cacao', a first-class band with jazz cracks such as trumpeter Andreas Unterreiner and drummer Tilman Herpichböhm provide the right sound." (Süddeutsche Zeitung)

"A lesson for all senses" (Allgäuer Zeitung)

"The overwhelming applause confirmed that she had struck a nerve with her concert." (SG Magazin)

"A mix of entertainment, information and food for thought"
(Münchner Merkur)

"Cacao as an art form" (Herrsching Online)

After the successful premiere to a full house, Elle & Kapelle return to the Lustspielhaus. And of course, this season's "Ciao Cacao" is all about chocolate! After all, chocolate can do almost anything: not only does it reveal whether you have the right partner at your side. It is also an effective beauty elixir and the best medicine for a happy life. We humans have loved chocolate dearly for over 6,000 years! But shock: did you know that it is traded on the stock exchange as an object of speculation? And that it is currently achieving record prices at dizzying heights - with fatal consequences for cocoa farmers and consumers? The high climate-related crop losses already indicate that the cocoa tree could be extinct in just a few decades ... Au Au, Ciao Cacao. Or is chocolate, of all things, the cat's meow when it comes to whether the world can still be saved?

With guided tasting of selected fine chocolates. And rousing songs to melt away to.

By and with Elle Czischek.
Music by Andreas Unterreiner.
Chocolate by Stefan Schneider.

Elle&Kappelle performs in this formation:
Elle Czischek (vocals)
Andreas Unterreiner (trumpet and flugelhorn)
Andi Schütz (keys)
Moritz Kinker (bass)
Knud Mensing (guitar)
Tilman Herpichböhm (drums)

In her chocolate show, Elle Czischek combines music, acting and moderation to create a total work of art. As a professional, state-trained actress with a wealth of TV, film and stage experience (including the Deutsches Schauspielhaus in Hamburg and the stages of the city of Cologne), songwriter and the wife of a chocolatier, Elle has created an evening about chocolate that has a lasting effect.

During an exciting time on the West Coast of the USA, Elle was so lacking in the incomparably bonfortionous expressiveness of the German language for her creative work that she decided to settle down as a singer in beautiful Bavaria. There she met fate in the form of an attractive chocolatier, who raised her pulse and her dress size. It was only natural that she had to process these experiences in her song lyrics.

The songs - pop, jazz chanson, funk, reggae and electroswing - were composed by Andreas Unterreiner. The 39-year-old studied jazz trumpet and composition in Munich and has held scholarships in Paris and New York. He has composed for the well-known Munich Jazzrausch Bigband, Buffzack and Chris Böttcher, among others, and plays regularly with Dreiviertelblut. The secret of his dazzling attractiveness lies not only in the regular consumption of high-proof chocolate: part of his daily trumpet exercises lasting several hours is the training of a group of facial muscles, which includes the so-called mouth corner puller, the guarantor par excellence for a particularly charming smile.
