Weill has always been present in our country - be it in theaters, recordings or concerts - even with younger generations. Or to put it this way: His music was never lost in the stars above Germany.. But there is another one whose cultural heritage needs to be reevaluated und rediscovered: Eisler!

Talked to Naura once shortly at Jazz Baltica. Aside from his role as a musician he also wrote in a highly original style and very wittily about jazz. There was a time when I was looking forward to his short, brilliant reviews and portraits for German weekly Die Zeit Thanks for your music and words, Mr. Naura!..
