About the album

Dutch cabaret star Sven Ratzke returns with a new EP with songs of his latest show, Diva Diva's, celebrating great divas of the 1960's like Shirley Bassey. Ratzke is joined on stage by his long-time collaborator and music director, jazz pianist Charly Zastrau.

Ratzke spends 48 weeks of the year touring all the biggest theaters, cabaret venues and festivals in Germany, Holland, Austria and Switzerland. Recently he took the title role in the first-ever Berlin production of "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," a role for which he received critical praise. Ratzke has also appeared at the Edinburgh Festival, The Mexico City International Cabaret Festival and at venues in Australia, France, Italy, Denmark and Spain. He is a frequent performer at Neue Gallerie and famous Joe's Pub in New York. At the moment he's touring troughout the world with his show Diva Diva's. This EP contains some of the highlights of this show.

Larger than life, perhaps even than the sirens who are the subject of his show, Sven Ratzke, in white silk and diamonds, amply demonstrated debut the flair that’s made him a legend.

His Diva Diva’s show may have a loose apostrophe, but the piece itself is tight as a drum, brilliantly scripted but with enough flexibility to allow him to flirt outrageously — front rows, you have been warned.

In DIVA DIVA'S brengt meester-entertainer Sven Ratzke de songs van de grote diva’s van de jaren zestig weer tot leven. ‘The sixties’ is in Ratzkes ogen ‘the most classy decade of the last century’, met de mooiste vrouwen en de prachtigste songs. Een tijdperk waarin glamour en klasse, persoonlijkheid en eigenzinnigheid samen opgaan en tot kunst worden verheven. Een combinatie die Ratzke op het lijf is geschreven! Zeven songs uit de show staan nu op zijn Diva Diva's EP!

Waan je in je avondjurk of smoking op de eerste rij Carnegie Hall in New York. Dusty, Judy, Eartha, Nina, Shirley, Marlene en Edith schrijden voorbij. Zij besparen je hun pikante details uit the bizz niet: de waanzin, de chiwawa's, de diamanten, de seks en de champagne. En zoals je van Ratzke gewend bent, voorziet hij hun songs van een nieuwe, muzikale gloed, samen met zijn geniale jazzpianist en arrangeur Charly Zastrau. Zo bezorgt hij zijn publiek een topavond met een wereldshow, waarin entertainment en steengoede muziek samensmelten.
Überlebensgroß sind die Gegenstände von Diva Diva's, der erfolgreichen Show des niederländischen Meisterentertainers und Chansonniers Sven Ratzke, deren Songs hier auf CD eingefangen wurden.. In weißer Seide und diamantgeschmückt feiert er dort die großen Diven der 1960er Jahre wie Shirley Bassey, und versprüht dabei das Flair, das ihn zur Legende machte. Die Show ist streng durchgeplant, lässt Ratzke jedoch die Freiheit, unerhört mit dem Publikum zu flirten.
Machen Sie sich hier selbst ein Bild - aber sagen Sie nicht, wir hätten Sie nicht gewarnt:
