Altfrentsche Besetzung mit Andrea Kirchhofer

«A musical awakening, even on the dance floor!»

Line-Up
Matthias Lincke Vocals, ViolinAndrea Kirchhofer Violin, VocalsElias Menzi HackbrettMatthias Härtel Bass, Vocals
The Lincke-Menzi-Härtel trio has been on the road as the Altfrentsche Besetzung since 2015. Violinist Matthias Lincke, Elias Menzi on the Appenzell dulcimer and bass fiddler and yodeller Matthias Härtel skilfully combine their traditional roots with their urge for free musical expression.

Andrea Kirchhofer and her duo Zugluft are known for their unhinged folk music for the 21st century. When she meets the Altfrentsche line-up, she mixes home-made Altfrentsche string music with new sounds from klezmer, minimal music and tango.

When the trio, which has been expanded into a quartet, plays for the dance, original and at the same time innovative music is created in the field of tension between the oddball jazz of Thelonious Monk and classical Appenzell string music, influenced by families of musicians such as the Mosers or Alders. A musical departure, also on the dance floor!
