For the final Carte Blanche evening of Andrea Kirchhofer's tenure, the two groups Zugluft and Altfränkische Besetzung will perform together for the first time, blending elements of Appenzell string music and jazz with imaginary folklore.
Violinist Matthias Lincke and Elias Menzi on the Appenzell hammered dulcimer are free spirits of string music who combine their traditional roots with their urge for spontaneous musical expression, joined by Hiasl on bass and yodelling. Since 2023, Altfr Palle Besetzung has performed regularly as a quartet with Andrea Kirchhofer on violin. This has also led to collaborations with an expanded line-up, such as 'Aufhebung der Alpen' (Suspension of the Alps) and the Klangwelt Toggenburg project.
On the other hand, clarinettists Bruno Strüby and Andrea Kirchhofer have been working together for over twenty years in various bands and theatre projects. Together, they develop the music of Zugluft. As a rich ensemble comprising two violins, an Appenzell hammered dulcimer, a double bass, a bass clarinet and a contrabass clarinet, the quintet interprets Kirchhofer's compositions and pieces from the repertoires of both bands.
- Duration of the concert 50-65 minutes
- Children of all ages are welcome at this concert.
- We will make sure the volume is appropriate, but we still recommend ear protection for the little ones.
- Children under 12 can attend the concert free of charge, but we ask that you reserve a free ticket.
- Young people aged 12-16 pay half price.
