Brigitta Barandun as a soloist or with the string quartet “A la Q’Art”:
With great fun and virtuoso versatility, the musicians of the ensemble A la Q’Art build original bridges between the most diverse musical styles. They surprise the audience with unconventional programme combinations and like to lead their listeners – always with a twinkle in their eyes – onto the musical slippery slope. A la Q’Art offers everything the music-loving heart desires – from exquisite works of classical string quartet literature to waltz, tango and gypsy sounds to contemplative and cheerful opera or jazz arrangements. The common basis of all performances is musical wit, charm – and of course the unique sound of the string quartet.
