Ensemble histoirefuture/ Simon Heggendorn & Gilbert Paeffgen/ Mario Batkovic

Line up:
Ensemble histoirefuture “Musica Transalpina”
Simon Heggendorn & Gilbert Paeffgen
Mario Batkovic

A journey through ancient musical connections, Alpine traditions and new forms of expression brings together three projects united by their exploration of sound. With Musica Transalpina, the ensemble histoirefuture traces the musical exchanges between the north and south of the Alps around 1600, creating a dialogue between historical music and folk traditions. Simon Heggendorn and Gilbert Paeffgen interweave the violin and the Appenzell hackbrett, whilst Mario Batkovic takes the accordion into sonic territories that span minimalism and experimental, hypnotic ambient music.
