»My Hamburg forever, my Elbphilharmonie for a special day« Inga Rumpf is looking forward to her 80th birthday. The musician and composer, who has been thrilling audiences for more than six decades with her unmistakable voice, inexhaustible creativity, and pure energy, is presenting a cross-section of her extraordinary musical career to mark the occasion.
Rock, soul, rhythm ‘n’ blues, gospel, and jazz: Inga Rumpf has given these genres a powerful voice. For this, she deserves the respect and admiration of her musical “Friends” (also the name of her long-standing band) and her many admirers across all borders. She celebrated international success five decades ago with the City Preachers and the rock bands Frumpy and Atlantis, toured with superstars B.B. King, Aerosmith, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Lionel Richie, and recorded in the studio with Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood. Tina Turner launched her global career with Inga’s song »I Wrote A Letter«. Now she’s reaching another high point at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie – with a very special touch: the concert will be available as a live recording on CD, vinyl, and digitally.
