This month, Max Raabe and his Palast Orchester bring the glamorous musical world of 1920s and 1930s Germany to life at the Fox Theatre. Raabe uses his versatile baritone voice to recreate the sound of early 20th century German dance and film music, even as he reinterprets modern pop songs such as “We Will Rock You” or performs original works with his 12-member orchestra.
Sometimes, however, you never want the music to end. If this evening’s performance leaves you wanting more, here are some places you can go online to extend the experience.
