Bernhard Brink Cancels Florian Silbereisen Appearance

Schlager artist Bernhard Brink had to cancel his scheduled performance on Florian Silbereisen's "Schlagerbooom" show in Dortmund last October. The reason given was an "urgent private appointment," according to Brink.

Brink, 74, was originally set to perform his new duet, "Du kannst es immer noch," with Sonja Liebing during the program. The appearance was a fixed part of the "Schlagerbooom" show, broadcast from the Westfalenhalle.

This cancellation came as Brink, who has had a career spanning over 50 years and launched his first major hit "Liebe auf Zeit" in the 1970s, prepares for his 75th birthday in 2027 and announced his farewell tour, "Danke für die Zeit."

Despite missing Silbereisen's show, Brink continued with other engagements. He performed concerts for an invited audience of approximately 200 guests in Nordhorn on October 18th and 19th. The "Schlagerbooom" show still featured a lineup of other major stars, including Helene Fischer, Andrea Berg, and Roland Kaiser.
