Nichts als Luft

And then there was only air. Shards on the floor and bewildered looks from the audience. It was supposed to go differently. Still, it has happened again ... Whistle it off! In this manner, world record holder and art whistler Sirus Madjderey and pianist Anna Hlavka present the history of art whistling from then until now. A journey to the beginnings of lip art, its heyday, and the question of what has become of it. Once a respected art that delighted its audience in variety theatres and on large stages. Today rather a disconcerting curiosity. That must change: there needs to be more whistling! What is the story behind all the proverbs about whistling? How many litres of air does "Eine kleine Nachtmusik" need? Why is the highest whistled note in the world so dangerous? And is a whisk really necessary for it, or will a spoon do? You see: there is a need for explanation. We promise you the light at the end of the scale.
