  • Mark Knopfler 2015 Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Einlass Ca. 18:30
    17.06.2015 Mark Knopfler 2015 Veranstaltungsort Westfalenhalle Einlass ca. 18:30 Uhr Beginn 20:00 Uhr Ende 22:45 Uhr Veranstalter Dirk Becker Entertainment GmbH Mark Knopfler hat der populären Musik mit einigen ihrer besten Songs immer wieder wichtige Impulse geliefert. Als genialer Gitarrist, Sänger und Songschreiber von Dire Straits, die sicher zu den größten Rockbands aller Zeiten gehören, erlangte er Weltruhm. Seine neun Soloalben knüpfen an die von ihm begründete Songtradition an und verbinden beide Schaffensperioden zu begeisternden Live-Erlebnissen. Mit rund 120 Millionen Alben zählt er zu einem illustren Kreis von Interpreten, die überragender Erfolg und bleibende Bedeutung auszeichnet. Auf den mehrfachen Grammy-Gewinner trifft die Bezeichnung Superstar wirklich zu, obwohl er sich nie als solcher geriert. Seine Musik bezeichnete ein Kritiker treffend als „Gegenentwurf zum hektischen Popzirkus, der selbst zum Welterfolg avancierte“. Mark Knopfler präsentiert seine aktuellen Songs, eine Auswahl aus seinen Soloalben und selbstverständlich einige markante Hits der 20-jährigen Dire Straits-Ära auf einer Europatournee, die ihn auch nach Deutschland führt. Salem, Hamburg, Dortmund, Mainz, Mannheim, Köln, Bad Kissingen, Stuttgart, Hannover, Berlin, Leipzig und München sind vom 31. Mai bis 11. Juli die Stationen. Sein neues Album „Tracker“ wird Anfang des Jahres veröffentlicht. Mark Knopfler, der kreative Dreh- und Angelpunkt der Dire Straits, wird von vielen Experten als Schlüsselinterpret der Rockgeschichte eingestuft. Er prägte einen einzigartigen Gitarrenstil und den für ihn typischen Sprechgesang, der dennoch eindrucksvolle melodische Züge trägt. Er gilt als ironischer Geschichtenerzähler, der ein Schicksal in drei bis vier Strophen auf den Punkt bringen kann. Sein Œuvre spiegelt Vielseitigkeit und Schaffenskraft des in Glasgow geborenen Musikers, der in Englisch promovierte, Vorlesungen hielt und seine akademische Karriere schließlich gegen die Gitarre eintauschte.

  • Vicente Amigo
    Vicente Amigo Tierra Different. Global. Surprising. That's how you can describe Vicente Amigo's new album Tierra, the most innovative and international of his career which will be released in February 2013. The great Flamenco guitar player has opened his music's window to the fresh air of the British producer Guy Fletcher and recorded in London with musicians from Dire Straits, Mark Knopfler and Capercaillie, in order to offer an exceptional and brave album in which Flamenco music blends naturally with other music styles, opening new paths without losing depth, holding tightly to the inspirational Southern Spanish sounds but wrapped in Celtic melodies, linking light and mist, hovering over different styles to create something completely new. “I met Guy in Córdoba last year, at a Mark Knopfler show during the Guitar Festival”, says Vicente Amigo. “We were introduced by the show's promoters, and the initial idea of playing a song with them developed into a new main objective: I wanted to fuse with all those great musicians. My proposal was to embrace all our freedoms: mine, his as a producer, and the musicians' who collaborated. That is far more important, at a certain point, than music itself”. The album Tierra has been produced by Guy Fletcher (Kent, 1960), who was Dire Straits' keyboard player and Mark Knopfler's inseparable collaborator. As a musician he has also worked with Roxy Music, Mick Jagger, Nothing Hillbillies, Randy Newman, Tina Turner, Willie De Ville, Brian Ferry, Aztec Camera ... An emblematic British musician who has placed Vicente Amigo's guitar in a new dimension of lyricism, dream-state, rhythmic beats, tone variety, brightness … An artistic connection going beyond different types of music, styles, languages.
