Der schwarze Hecht
Music
It's director Oberholzer's sixtieth birthday. His wife and daughter Anna receive the guests who are invited to the feast, with a dish of pike as the main course. But suddenly, the celebration turns sour at the appearance of an unexpected guest - namely Oberholzer's brother Alois, the black sheep of the family, who disappeared years ago. As it turns out, Alois has since changed his name to "Obolski" and become ringmaster of a major circus. Him and his wife Iduna quickly threaten the morals and standards of the bourgeois party, and they proceed to turn the boring proceedings into a turbulent circus show. Fortunately, after much confusion, the story ends happily - altough the pike has burned black in the oven!
Die kleine Niederdorfoper

Farmer Heiri has sold his calf and celebrates his temporary wealth in the big city. But in so doing he is confronted with many temptations and dangers: pickpockets, second-rate artists and prostitutes who all try to grab the money of this naive man from Hausen. But as soon as all the banknotes have been transformed into alcohol, none of these alleged friends want anything more to do with him... This is a 1978 recording of the well-known Zürich boulevard theatre piece.
