About This Show
The Brooklyn Philharmonic
Michael Christie, conductor

Superstar chanteuse Ute Lemper returns after her triumphant Brooklyn Philharmonic debut last season, singing songs in praise of great cities like Brel’s Amsterdam, The Streets of Berlin and reprises music from her star turn in Chicago and much more.
