Wiener Facetten

best sense of the word. They play with unbelievable
unbelievable joy, tell anecdotes and recite poems with their
music,, make the audience laugh, cry and, somehow, reflect. They place Joseph Haydn alongside
Georg Danzer, Johann Strauẞ alongside Arik Brauer and Gerhard Bronner. The historical origins
of a work is disregarded, the important thing is to adhere to the ancient Viennese musical tradition,
sound and mentality.
Duration: approx. 50 minutes

Arioso Quartett

magnificent Viennese orchestras, the Viennese Philharmonic and the Viennese Symphony.
Through their particular care for classical and romantic masterpieces, the Arioso Quartet performs
quite a service for the whole Viennese musical tradition. These musicians come recommended by
members of renowned ensembles such as the Alban Berg Quartet, the Aris Quartet and the
Wiener Streichsextett.
Since its inception the Arioso Quartet has maintained a busy concert schedule, having debuted in
2001 in the Wiener Konzerthaus’s Schubertsaal.
Duration: approx. 45-50 Minuten
Fee: € 2,100

Acht Cellisten
Personnel: 8 musicians:
Repertoire: Eight cellos on the stage – that’s quite something to behold! Such a personnel
enables performances to travel to varied sonic spheres. Original musical ideas are created due to
the number of instruments.
Acht Cellisten offer a magnificent range, from the lyrical brilliance of the soprano, to the melodic
tones of eight tenors, to rich bass foundations. However, this ensemble’s particular interest is in
using new instrumentation to expose unknown aspects of supposedly well-known works. The
processes are faithful to the original – not a single note is new, and the only tampering that occurs
is the elimination of doubling and the tweaking of octaves.
These performers and their eight identical instruments spark new, exciting connections in the
listener’s ear. Moreover, the solo interpretation of each single part lends every concert a multifaceted and personal chamber music-esque intimacy.
Duration: approx. 45-50 minutes
Fee: €4,400
