Motown stands for a steady stream of No. 1 hits, glamorous acts, and a musical revolution! Even today, the name exudes a very special musical magic. Motown launched global stars who remain indispensable to this day: the Jackson 5, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, The Four Tops, and many more.
In the concert show “The Sound of Classic Motown,” renowned actor Ron Williams returns to his roots and, as a radio DJ, takes the audience back to the heyday of the Detroit sound with hits like “ABC,” “Stop! In the Name of Love,” “Dancing in the Streets,” “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone,” “Let’s Stay Together,” “I Heard It Through the Grapevine,” “Signed, Sealed, Delivered,” and many more. In addition, the former announcer for the AFN radio station shares behind-the-scenes stories. For beyond its incredible musical success, the history of Motown is also a story full of love, intrigue, disputes, and rivalries.
Numerous show elements bring the world of “Hitsville USA” and all its participants to life right before your eyes. Musically, ten lead singers guarantee the authentic Motown sound—from the dazzling sounds of the Supremes to the captivating harmonies of the Temptations and the Four Tops. The foundation for this is provided by a live band featuring the legendary Funk Brothers.
Experience an unforgettable evening with music from the legendary Motown label, presented by the Sweet Soul Music Company at the KKL Luzern.
