Matthias Schriefl: Six, Alps & Jazz

With relish and vital virtuosity, Six, Alps & Jazz leave no thought of yesterday's folk music at all. Local instruments such as the alphorn are presented in a new way and old songs are translated into the global music of improvised jazz alongside original compositions in Alpine style. Matthias Schriefl proves to be a confident border crosser between musical cultures.

"The album "Six, Alps & Jazz" was voted one of the 10 best albums of the year" (Sunday Times)

"Six, Alps & Jazz" soon turns out to be a musical grab bag. Stuffed with quirky ideas, astonishing twists and turns and an almost inexhaustible arsenal of sound colors."
(Kulturmagazin / Peter Füssl)

"Unbridled listening fun that redefines the sounds of home!" (Sven Thielmann)
