ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
The Festive Gala at the Semperoper Dresden brings
back the splendour of UFA Film for one scintillating night
full of famous melodies. Christian Thielemann and his
Staatskapelle Dresden together with the three outstanding
singers Angela Denoke, Elisabeth Kulman and Daniel Behle
pay homage to the hit songs of the so-called dream factory,
which produced film classics like Metropolis, The Three
from the Filling Station and The Blue Angel. Created in
the first half of the 20th century, UFA productions were
marked by the predominant political climate, which meant,
that in the 1930s and 1940s, they were tailored to the
purposes of propaganda und subject to NS film politics.
Many musical artists, who contributed to UFA films, were
forced to emigrate, e.g. Friedrich Hollaender. Some, like
Hans May, found fame abroad, creating memorable film
scores from London to Hollywood.
