Artistika - Winner Gala
The Russian Chamber Philharmonic
certainly rank among their country‘s
most eminent musical ambassadors. The
orchestra impressively demonstrates an
inexhaustible variety of musical talents.
Its extraordinarily broad repertoire
ranging from baroque to contemporary
music, its unmistakable timbre and the
enthusiasm and virtuosity of all the
players has made it one of Europe‘s most
popular ensembles.
Enjoyable, catchy, exciting and flexible
– the Flexcats are a group of four music
lovers who provide good music and a
pleasant atmosphere. Their repertoire
includes instrumental and vocal music
from a variety of genres: Swing, Tex-Mex,
Retro Pop, Rock ‚n‘ Roll, Country, Soul
and Bolero. Well-known radio hits from
the last century alternate with long-lost
memories and surprising gems from the
musical archive.
A unique event!
The fourth Artistika will be held in
Visp on 5 March 2016. Six established
artists will compete for the trophy at the
international artistic festival. You can
watch the winners perform live at Mont
Cervin Palace a few days later. Prepare to
be amazed: you have never experienced
acrobatics so close!

road; an unexpected embrace or a meaningful glance. Making these
moments happen is our mission at the Seiler Hotels.
