Customer Rating: - Raabe is Right...
This is one great DVD for those of us who like the stylings of this kind of Orchestra, and which can transport one back to those halcyon days of yesterday in a brand-new venue. It's mostly in German, but one can get subtitles by just hitting the right button -- and the subtitles can only enhance the overall effect. The 5.1 surround is very effective, and the music itself is just perfect, reminescent of Berlin in the late '20s and '30s. (There are a few American songs, and they are sung in English --and very well indeed!)

For anyone who likes to live in the past (as I do -- it's cheaper!) this DVD is a real treasure!! As extras, there are (very small) snippets of the orchestra's trip to other countries (no music there, however)...but a nice additon to a DVD that doesn't really need any additions!

Customer Rating: - What More Can I Say ... ?
Max Raabe and Palast Orchester: Dance & Film Music of 1920s is worth every penny charged, and then some.

I cannot add anything to the reviews above except to say that I have now watched this show two nights in succession and I can't wait to invite friends over to see it as well. I did not think that such superior entertainers still existed!

Frankly, I cannot imagine anyone not enjoying this disc. What a showman! He sings in six languages including Chinese! And what an orchestra! These musicians can make their instruments sound like anything they like (even Chinese instruments!). These people all play several instruments and they play them extremely well. I have a number of records and discs of salon orchestras, but the Palast Orchester is by far the best.

I too hope that more DVDs (and CDs) of Max Raabe and the Palast Orchester will be issued. I'll buy every one.

Customer Rating: - Max Raabe and Palast Orchester
A marvelous DVD. I have seen Max Raabe's program live on several occasions and this DVD certainly captures the flavor and excitement of a live program. His show is slick and his musical artistry first-rate. I'm looking forward to a second DVD.

Customer Rating: - Let's Have More
I totally agree with the foregoing reviews. Admittedly one requires a taste for this kind of music to enjoy this performance. It takes about one viewing.

The picture quality and sound are terrific. The subtitles are good and very useful the first time through to get the hilarious patter between numbers. One must set the television or monitor to other than full screen to see them properly.

I am awaiting the rumored DVD of the recent Japan concert, some of which is in the bonus material with this DVD.

Let's have more!
