Press Commentaries

„A brilliant performance of Stella’s Morgenstern at the Felix-Nussbaum-Haus: wishing to balance a turbulent world with the language of music. The mixture of styles, passions, instruments and languages, old and new, Yiddish and American Folk, fulfilled that wish successfully.“

Matthias Liedtke – NOZ

„A fully different sound world, a concert that makes you reflective, an absolute highlight!“

Giessener Zeitung

„Stella’s Morgenstern’s gorgeous evening: a diversified musical and emotional trip to the cosmos of Jewish music, whose passion, humour and depth are based on different cultural, geographic and lingual foundations. Stella is accompanied on her trip by the multi-instrumentalist Andreas Hecht, who is well aquiainted with everything consisting of strings. Sometimes witty, sometimes poignant, sometimes dreamy, sometimes real, yet always humane and carried by a deep – never wailing or ideological – belief in Jewish religion and culture.“

Thorsten Richter – Kieler Nachrichten

„‚Stella’s Morgenstern‘ confronts you with subtle lingual arts by the israeli musician and poet prof*merose, who can make the simplest melodies shine. Andreas Hecht und Stella can masterfully present the contradictory and ambiguous aspects of love, without suffocating the songs or the audience. The programm combines the cheerful and the uneasy, the moody and the expectant and fascinates the audience.“

Esther Gückel – Elbmelancholie

„Both know how to tell beautiful stories, but mainly how to sing and play.“

Petra Riess – NDR/Kultur

„Sad ballads or cheerful folk, a quick waltz or a „brutal tango“: the programm is a bridge between traditional American, Mid-Eastern and European music. The songs are very diversified and engage the audience to sing along the catchy refrains.“

Tom Bullmann – NOZ Osnabrück

„Stella has an incredible voice and a great aura, with which she fascinates her audience.“
