New interpretation by Dan Andersson.

 

When Peter Ekberg Pelz with instrumental group took the stage in Cassels

there were new and exciting tunes to the familiar lyrics.
It rocked wonderfully in the blues version of "Brooklandsvägen".

It was a new and exciting way of interpreting the poet

and with the musicians that Ekberg Pelz brought with him 
so it could not be anything but very good.
 
By introducing some more modern tones

in a by now well-proven concept 
the poet gets new life and can reach other target groups than before.

Musical lecture

 

A hopeful document about reversing pain, grief and abandonment

to life energy, humor and joy.

"From pain to new vitality. There is a beauty in daring to be weak.
We need comfort and we need to give comfort.- In 'Poetry of pain gives the song of the heart'
Peter Ekberg Pelz has collected music and poetry from many sources
and mixed it with personal thoughts and own texts.
The result is intensely alive and strong, an evening to remember for us who were there.

Peter Ekberg Pelz has something to say. Insights into what it is like to be human,
which he conveys with warmth, humor and an honesty that reaches the heart.
He has also found a strength that feels like a primordial force.

A pulsating joy of life, which can not be hindered by pain and loss.

In addition, Peter Ekberg Pelz and Walther Årlind are a couple of furiously skilled musicians, who playfully and sensitively switch between different genres.

Walther Årlind has played with the Philharmonic Orchestra and the Hovkapellet

and can really conjure up a double bass, like when he suddenly tears off a tango.

The Poetry of Pain with Peter Ekberg Pelz and the double bassist Walther Årlind is an intense and emotionally charged performance about pain, sorrow and beauty. "

Ny tolkning av Dan Andersson.

 

När Peter Ekberg Pelz med instrumentalgrupp

intog scenen i Cassels bjöds det på nya och

spännande tongångar till de välbekanta texterna.
Det gungade härligt i bluesversion av "Brooklandsvägen".

Det var ett nytt och spännande sätt att tolka skalden på

och med de musiker som Ekberg Pelz hade med sig 
så kunde det inte bli annat än mycket bra. 
Genom att föra in lite modernare tongångar

i ett vid det här laget välbeprövat koncept får diktaren

nytt liv och kan nå andra målgrupper än tidigare.

Musikaliskt föredrag

 

Ett hoppfullt dokument om att vända smärtan, sorgen och uppgivenheten till livsenergi, humor och glädje.

"Från smärta till ny livskraft. Det finns en skönhet i att våga vara svag.
Vi behöver tröst och vi behöver ge tröst.- I 'Smärtans poesi ger Hjärtats sång'
har Peter Ekberg Pelz samlat musik och poesi från många håll
och blandat det med personliga tankar och egna texter.
Resultatet är intensivt levande och starkt, en kväll att minnas för oss som var där.

Peter Ekberg Pelz har något att säga. Insikter om hur det är att vara människa,
som han förmedlar med värme, humor och en ärlighet som når fram till hjärtat.
Han har också hittat en styrka som känns som en urkraft.

En pulserande livsglädje, som inte låter sig hindras av plågor och förluster.

Dessutom är Peter Ekberg Pelz och Walther Årlind ett par rasande skickliga musiker, som lekfullt och känsligt växlar mellan olika genrer.

Walther Årlind har spelat med Filharmonikerna och Hovkapellet

och kan verkligen trolla med en kontrabas, som när han plötsligt river av en tango.

Smärtans poesi med Peter Ekberg Pelz och kontrabasisten Walther Årlind är en intensiv och känsloladdad föreställning om smärta, sorg och skönhet."
