Konzert POP mit Johannes Silberschneider und David Reumüller

The stage program for the exhibition POP 1900–2000 offers a varied overview of 100 years of popular music in Styria – from the beginnings of the 20th century to the year 2000. In a combination of lectures, scenic elements, and audiovisual recordings, David Reumüller and Johannes Silberschneider guide through the most important stages of Styrian music history.

At the center are influential personalities and musical developments: from early artists like Mirzl Hofer and Alexander Girardi, through the era of the Comedy Harmonists and the break caused by National Socialism, to the jazz-influenced post-war period and the folk sounds of the Edler Trio or the Kernbuam.

The second part of the program is dedicated to the emergence of beat music and finally the great successes of Styrian musicians from the 1970s onwards – including Stefanie Werger, STS, Opus, the EAV, and many more. Alternative trends and the stylistic diversity of the regional music scene will also be discussed.
The evening will be complemented by contributions from contemporaries, who will expand the historical facts and make them tangible with personal memories, insights, and anecdotes.

And even though the focus is on information and communication: An evening with Johannes Silberschneider, David Reumüller, and their guests promises not only knowledge gain but also likely great entertainment – with spontaneous moments that could possibly take on a cabaret-like twist.

From Mirzl Hofer and Alexander Girardi to the Comedy Harmonists, the jazz of the post-war period, the Kernbuam, and beat music to STS, Stefanie Werger, Opus, the EAV, and alternative scenes: In this stage program for the exhibition POP 1900–2000, David Reumüller and Johannes Silberschneider trace 100 years of Styrian popular music – knowledgeable, lively, and multimedia-supported.

Karl Tiffner from Melody & Rhythmus in Kalwang and musicians Heli Wagner and Gerry Schweiger from Leoben enrich the evening with personal memories and rare insights.

An informative stroll through music history – with the guarantee that despite all objectivity, it will also be entertaining or even cabaret-like.
