TRËI sings songs of the women who watch over the beds of the living and the dying. Crows, ravens and magpies accompany their stories and songs, predict war, bring good news. Poetic and honest, TRËİ deals with persecution, empowerment and femininity, honoring all those who have accompanied people on the edge of life singing for centuries.

TRËİ sings vocal folk from different cultures and their own compositions. In staged concerts and interdisciplinary collaborations, the trio creates adventurous vocal and instrumental music that repeatedly revolves around the question of being human on a turbulent planet.

TRËI: Abélia Nordmann, Gizem Şimşek, Mara Miribung / Voices, Cello, Psalter, Harmonium

"Wybergschtürm" or "Die ruhige Weiber" in the laundry room: many country hits describe a women's theme, but come from the pens of men who naturally don't know much about women's lives. In the project Ladies' Choice! the true "Wybergschtürm experts" are now making themselves heard: Eleven of the most accomplished folk music women in Switzerland will present a complete programme of compositions by women and tour the country with them.

The idea came about at the suggestion of the artistic director of the Altdorf Folk Music Festival, which wanted to honour and highlight the influence and importance of women for the development of the folk music scene.

With: Evelyn Brunner – Schwyzerörgeli / double bass, Kristina Brunner – Schwyzerörgeli / cello, Maria Gehrig – violin / recorder, Barbara Gisler – cello / double bass, Anna Staschia Janett – violin, Cristina Janett – cello, Madlaina Janett – viola, Hanna Landolt – violin, Gaby Näf – clarinet / saxophone, Martina Rohrer – double bass, Andrea Ulrich – accordion, Patricia Ulrich – piano

"Siblings at the Limit" tells the story of Isa Wiss and Hans-Peter Pfammatter. They are a Lucerne musician duo from the jazz and folk song scene, which is often booked for "special occasions": award ceremonies, weddings, funerals. What people say about them: They can convey great emotions with their music. Together with director Beatrice Fleischlin, they dig into the siblings' biographical material, carefully fan out the finds and put them together to create a scenic-musical evening with people, music and delirium.

The world is of the most diverse nature, complex and diverse, whether we like it or not. The Ensemble ö! has turned this tricky hodgepodge around us into a musical quality and transformed it into a pleasure. SONNENGELB presents compositions by Fabien Lévy (*1968), Arnulf Herrmann (*1968), Tristan Murail (*1947) and Morton Feldman (1926–1987).

The ensemble: Riccarda Caflisch, flute, Manfred Spitaler, clarinet, Adrián Albaladejo Díaz, tuba, Talvi Hunt, piano, Dino Georgeton, percussion, David Sontòn Caflisch, violin, Soffia Suldia, violin, Maria Kropotkina, viola, Christian Hieronymi, cello. Conductor: Francesc Pratt.
