Urban Strings
Geo Popoff & Klaus Falschlunger – beatbox & sitar
One could not imagine such a duo!
Beatbox & indische Sitar?
However, what vocalist Geo Popoff, a two-time world beatbox champion, and Klaus Falschlunger, an excellent sitarist, have to offer is astonishing. The two musicians' pieces are bursting with playfulness and ingenuity. Indian music, hip-hop, folk, pop ... but with this line-up everything sounds completely different. It's a brilliant exchange and collaboration to create and expand any recognisable musical worlds - a dream dance between eastern ballads and explosive, rhythmic elements.
Mountains & Plains
Zoltan Lantos & Klaus Falschlunger – violin & sitar
The multi-award-winning Hungarian violinist Zoltan Lantos and Klaus Falschlunger, one of the most distinguished European sitar players, hold an extensive dialogue with their instruments. With their new program "Mountains and Plains" they explore Western and Eastern musical traditions.
They make connections between Indian and Jazz music, folk and pop and convince with a fascinating mixture of exotic and familiar sounds!
Saraswati String Quartett – three strings & one sitar
- Irina Zehm – violoncello
- Lydia Kurz – violine/viola
- Clemens Rofner – kontrabass
- Klaus Falschlunger – sitar
The Saraswati String Quartet is currently deemed to be one of the most interesting chamber music ensembles in Europe.
Initiated by sitar player Klaus Falschlunger and Clemens Rofner on double bass - who also contribute their own compositions - the quartet, together with Lydia Kurz on violin and viola and Irina Zehm on violoncello, roams musical hemispheres between the Orient and the Occident, impressively demonstrating how the East and the West can be traveled simultaneously.
With a fascinating mixture of exotic and familiar sounds, the ensemble knows how to give even tightly constructed sounds an easily comprehensible form. Floating sounds, sometimes entangled, sometimes unraveled, create a fairytale atmosphere and a magic that no one can escape.
