SCHWANZEN SÄNGER KNABEN Quartet based in Copenhagen, Denmark   © Bjarne Stæhr   Schwanzen Sänger Knaben has existed for nine years and is known by many people in Denmark. A song quartet consisting of four a cappella gay singers with an irrepressible desire for singing! With oral melodiousness, they throw themselves on issues and taboos that no one else will touch with a barge pole. You will hear suggestive leather lieder, country tunes about gays in Jutland, sadistic salsa, child molester Bollywood, merciless church hymns – with caustic, satirical lyrics written by Britta Barfoed and Wanda Liszt. The songs are discreet, but RIGHT-ON. With wonderful harmonies and elegant arrangements in almost every genre you can think of, the songs balance delicately on the difficult line between pornography and blasphemy. Let yourself get seduced by the four melodious Schwanzen boys' insolent songs and confessions – there will not be a single dry seat in the house!   Contribution: Performs during the concert event “Culture in Democracy” on Saturday, October 23, 2004, from 7:30 pm – 3 am in Station 1: The Equestrian Hall, Aarhus.
