An event like this is surely something entirely new for you too! On one hand, the music won’t be surrounded by the usual concert hall ambiance; instead, it will unfold outdoors on the breathtaking new terrace at the Eggli summit. On top of that (literally), the Vision String Quartet will perform standing up and without sheet music – and all of this with such an eclectic programme! In the first part, brace yourself for 20th-century “classics” from Bloch and Shostakovich, before the Berlin-based quartet steers into the jazz and folk realms showcased on their album “Spectrum”, which will then open up the stage for a set with DJ & electric violonist Seth Schwarz. The classically trained violinist weaves his artistry seamlessly into any beat and melody, drawing inspiration from an array of styles and genres – whether it’s House, Techno, or Electro. Get ready for a leisurely evening on the alpine meadow!
