Overview

At the heart of Bonnie Tyler's show are songs from the current CD "The Best Is Yet To Come" (earMUSIC). They are framed in a fireworks display of the various Bonnie bestsellers - from her first chart hit "Lost In France" (1975) to the world hit "It's A Heartache" as well as "Total Eclipse Of The Heart", "Holding Out For A Hero" to "If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man)" or "Loving You Is A Dirty Job".

This musician is really excellent! This is evidenced by Grammy nominations for Best pop singer and Best Rock musician, the RSH Gold Award, the Echo or the Golden Europe as the most successful artist. But her domain has been the stage since the beginning of her career. That's why it's worthwhile once again to experience the rock tube live, especially in this year so special for you.

Venue Info

Alte Oper Frankfurt - Frankfurt am Main
Opernplatz 1

The original opera house in Frankfurt is now the Alte Oper (Old Opera), a concert hall and former opera house in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It was inaugurated in 1880 but destroyed by bombs in 1944. It was rebuilt, slowly, in the 1970s, opening again in 1981. Many important operas were performed for the first time in Frankfurt, including Carl Orff's Carmina Burana in 1937.

The square in front of the building is known as Opernplatz (Opera Square). The Alte Oper is located in the inner city district, Innenstadt, within the banking district Bankenviertel.

The Oper Frankfurt now plays in the Opern- und Schauspielhaus Frankfurt, completed in 1951, which it shares with the Schauspiel Frankfurt theatre company.

The building was designed by the Berlin architect Richard Lucae, financed by the citizens of Frankfurt and built by Philipp Holzmann. Construction began in 1873. It opened on October 20, 1880.

The Alte Oper was almost completely destroyed by bombs during World War II in 1944 (only some of the outside walls and façades survived). In the 1960s the city magistrate planned to build a modern office building on the site. The then Minister of Economy in Hessen Rudi Arndt, earned the nickname "Dynamit-Rudi" (Dynamite Rudi) when he proposed to blow up "Germany's most beautiful ruin" with "a little dynamite". Arndt later said that this was not meant seriously.

A citizen's initiative campaigned for reconstruction funds after 1953 and collected 15 million DM. It ended costing c. DM160, and the building was reopened on August 28, 1981, to the sounds of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 8, the "Symphony of a Thousand". A live recording of that concert conducted by Michael Gielen is available on CD.
