Laura & Luzius Schuler: Mandà in Lunga

«As if in a state of suspension»

Line-Up
Laura Schuler Vocals, ViolinLuzius Schuler Orgel
Genre
Acoustic AmbientExperimental
It is music of crystalline beauty, equally natural spectacle and document of a most intimate musical interaction. In the autumn and winter of 2023, Laura and Luzius Schuler travel to Val Poschiavo to listen to alpine tales.

Here, siblings Laura and Luzius are confronted with the rugged mountain world and a landscape in a state of flux. In the face of this scenery, voice and instruments become mist and shadow. They pulse like the rock that surrounds them. The organ is no longer a monolith, but flexible, malleable, capable of singing, while the bow plays the wind, the light, the water. This music resembles the brushstroke of the sun, which brings the stone to life, painting it through the clouds.

Recorded in the reformed church of Poschiavo, with Luzius on the church organ and Laura on violin and vocals, their album "Mandà in Lunga" (Ronin Rhythm Records, 2025) was recorded over in just two sessions. As if in a state of suspension we find improvised confrontations with the surrounding environment and with nature, somewhere between acoustic ambient and experimental sound art.
