Here are some beautiful photos of Ute Lemper by Azzurra Primavera from the FestambienteSud in Vieste on August 2, 2024, where she sang the love poems of Pablo Neruda.

This was a special event for the celebration of one hundred years since the publication of the collection Twenty Love Poems and a desperate song by Pablo Neruda.

“The film based on my concert SONGS FOR ETERNITY is now available. It is a very poetic  and heartbreaking film illustrating the music in the ghettos. The concert was filmed in my hometown Muenster. I conceived this project to remind people not to forget. Please watch it.  – Ute”

In Songs for Eternity, Ute Lemper revives songs by Jewish composers that were written in the concentration camps of the Second World War and given to her in a songbook by her agent Orly Beigel.

The moving concert film accompanies the two on their journey to Bergen-Belsen, where Orly’s mother was imprisoned and eventually liberated by the US army. Ute Lemper sensitively and profoundly traces the emotional world of the Jewish composers and gives a touching musical memorial to their past.

This release will be available for purchase on September 20, 2024.

It seems like we are all permanently confused about many aspects of life and the world we live in.
So what shall we do about it? Listen to good music.. is one way and of course enjoy, love and fight the good fight for the future generations.

Therefore, I will be online – live – on Tuesday, May 28 at 4pm – NYC time to talk about the new edition of my album, the three new songs and much more. So don’t miss out!

PERMANENTLY CONFUSED
“When I came home you were gone….”
A song about love and loss, growing up only to forget about the magic and innocence of childhood. With the many journeys you take and in every labor of love you come closer back to that source of origin that lives in the child’s mind.
