Heimweh nach Köln LP

Description

To mark the start of the carnival season on November 11, 2026, Kompakt, in collaboration with the Willi Ostermann Gesellschaft Köln 1967 e.V. and 1. FC Köln, will celebrate the 150th birthday of Willi Ostermann, one of the city’s greatest poets, songwriters, and composers. Soccer and Carnival have always shared the same passion, the same emotions, and the same sense of community. Out of a deep connection to this special Cologne spirit and in honor of Willi Ostermann, Kompakt is releasing a new version of the unofficial national anthem “Heimweh nach Köln”. The reissue of the Ostermann classic is released on red vinyl, featuring the original 1936 version and a KOMPAKT remix.
