The seven musicians perform a variety of music from classical and klezmer to Gypsy and Latin Jazz – an intoxicating mix of styles with a captivating sound and diverse harmonies complete with brilliant instrumental ornamentation. As these musicians walk the line between various genres in celebration of the summer solstice, listeners will experience Viennese flair and warm cordiality at its finest – and at the highest musical level. The programme weaves itself around the “K & K Rhapsody,” a medley arranged by Tibor Kováč and František Jánoška with allusions to six of the most important pieces of this very period. This is enveloped by pieces from Fritz Kreisler, Johannes Brahms, Johann Strauss and others. All this promises to be an evening of sheer Viennese charm for all the senses on the longest day of the year. Two version available: 52min & 13min Accentus Music GmbH & Co. KG tel.
