Who doesn't know the famous Mainz carnival song "Heile, heale Gansje". It became a comforting song that is sung on all sorts of occasions. Wolfgang Birtel takes the melody on a humorous journey through music history, transforming it - more or less hidden - into the guise of famous composers. So "Heile, heile Gansje" appears in the little sentences sometimes with a powdered Bach wig or at the court ball with Johann Strauss, with Haydn at Furst Esterhazy or at the Schubertiade, etc. Humor is the trump card in these parodies, which involve enjoyable music-making in a string quartet - ad libitum with double bass - guaranteed.
