Max Riebl - The Great Pretender
The show combines brilliant and audacious interpretations of the songs of Elvis, Morrissey and Garland with some of Bach's greatest music and the result isn't fusion, it's chemistry. Max Riebl combines his mastery as a baroque countertenor with the power and authenticity of an emerging pop artist for a totally unique, profound performance.
