Organ point and Alpine gorge
Balthasar Streiff (Alphorn, trumpet)
Stephan Thomas (organ)

The musicians, who also work as composers, the Chur city church organist Stephan Thomas (organ) and the brass player Balthasar Streiff (Alphorn, Büchel, animal horns, and related instruments), jointly and soloistically create original works and compositions. The program includes works from the Baroque era including G. Fantini, the Romantic period (arranged alpine shepherd melodies by F. F. Huber) to works from the 20th century (Armitage, Vauterin, Rütti). In particular, Carl Rütti's "Suite Pastorale" presents traditional pastoral pieces in a more modern interpretation in a particularly successful way. These works are connected with short folk song variations (organ), Muotathal shepherd calls, animal horn passages, and small sound sculptures from the repertoire of the musicians' own creations.

Doors open: 4:00 PM
