William Wahl in Essen

William Wahl is a German singer-songwriter, pianist and cabaret performer known through his work with the Cologne a cappella group basta and his solo piano songs. His comic material is built on wordplay and everyday observation, as heard in “Deutsche Bahn,” a song about the frustrations of rail travel. William Wahl brought his solo repertoire to theatres in the piano-cabaret program Wahlgesänge, combining original songs with spoken comedy. He followed it with another touring program for voice and piano, Nachts sind alle Tasten grau.
