Mumbai Oct 9th2013(Eddie Patel): All Classical Music Explained (ACME) is a stand-up comedy show with a difference. Rainer Hersch - is a a multi-talented comedian and musician who is equally at home closing the show at the famous Comedy Store in London or conducting the St Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra. With All Classical Music Explained he turns his comic skills on those awkward questions: "Why is organ music so boring?"; "How can I play a musical instrument without practising?"; "What do conductors actually do?". From playing the recorder to Grand Opera - it's all here plus piano playing like you have never heard.
ACME has been turned into two series for the BBC. Excerpts from the show are also available on CD. This is a comedy show with an edge for audiences of all ages and is intended for anyone who enjoys music of whatever kind.
ACME has appeared at:Edinburgh Festival, Purcell Room (South Bank, London), Henley Festival, Perth Festival (Scotland), Belfast Festival, Wexford Opera Festival (Republic of Ireland), Adelaide Festival (Australia), Grahamstown Festival (South Africa), Edmonton Festival (Canada), Comed'in Festival (Lisbon), Felicja Blumental Festival (Israel) and many others.
"Not Since Victor Borge has a music-comic raised the roof with such continuous laughter" The Post, South Africa
"This swift and very funny hour is the perfect prelude to a night at the concert hall - or an evening in the pub" The Scotsman, Edinburgh Festival
