The two-part ORF III production "André Hellers Hauskonzerte" shown last year, with a top-class cast with Camilla Nylund and Günther Groissböck, is followed this year by another musical concert film project based on an idea by André Heller. In it, opera star Camilla Nylund breathes new life into the “Great American Songbook” together with the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra under the baton of chief conductor Marin Alsop.

A total of 14 iconic songs, all dedicated to the theme of love, revive the spirit of US show business from the 1930s to 1960s. Each of the 14 titles is dressed in a new, individually designed guise - from an intimate piano song with saxophone to a large orchestral song. The arrangements specially made for this production come from Christof Unterberger, Florian Sitzmann and Leonard Eröd. The visual language of the concert film project is also unusual for a 21st-century production: black-and-white shots take the audience back to the era of US popular music. Robert Neumüller is responsible for the TV direction.
