Max Raabe and the Palast Orchester Booking Agency Profile

Book Max Raabe and the Palast Orchester for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
The Palast Orchester, or the Palace Orchestra in English, is a German orchestra based in Berlin that specializes in the cabaret and popular songs of the Weimar period in Germany and American popular songs of the same era. The orchestra consists of all men, except for the violinist who has always been a female. Its current members include Max Raabe as the vocalist, Cecilia Crisafulli as the violinist, and several other talented musicians who play various instruments such as clarinet, trumpet, saxophone, guitar, banjo, balalaika, piano, percussion, and more.

Max Raabe founded the orchestra in 1985 with fellow students at the Berlin University of the Arts. Initially, the ensemble used music arrangements that Raabe found at various flea markets. After a year of learning these arrangements without any public engagements or performances, the orchestra gave its first public performance at the 1987 Berlin Theaterball. The performance was such a success that the audience left the ballroom to hear the orchestra's performance in the lobby.

The orchestra gained its first song hit, "Kein Schwein ruft mich an", five years later, which was an original song by Raabe. The orchestra has since performed around 120 concerts per year and has collaborated with musicians such as HK Gruber, Peter Lohmeyer, and Heino Ferch.

The orchestra's performances pay homage to the composers of the Weimar era, including Walter Jurmann, Fritz Rotter, Will Meisel, Charles Amberg, Jerzy Petersburski, Günter Schwenn, Adolf Steimel, and Ralph Maria Siegel. In addition to its performances of vintage German and American popular songs, the orchestra has also covered contemporary music in the same musical style as the earlier songs. The orchestra made its Carnegie Hall debut in 2005, and the ensemble returned to Carnegie Hall in November 2007, and again in March 2014..
