Matthias Reim (64) has to cancel all upcoming concerts for September and October. The organizer Semmel Concerts announced this on Instagram, among other things. Unfortunately, the singer's health has "deteriorated in the last few days". Reim had to go into "intensive medical treatment" on the evening of September 1st.

"In addition to his vocal cord inflammation, other, more serious problems have arisen that require longer-term treatment and will take several weeks," it said. You have to give the singer "a longer break".

Therefore, all performances for the coming weeks would have to be canceled. Reim should have played in Potsdam, Nuremberg and Gera, among others. In the coming days, the organizer wants to announce possible alternative dates. They are currently "confident that he will be fully fit again for the arena concerts in December". For the end of the year, appearances in Leipzig, Magdeburg, Hamburg, Berlin and Cologne are on the agenda.
