ALPINE MUSIC DAVOS - HOTEL PALINDRONE

Alpestan. A language game? A small, perhaps imaginary principality, high in the Caucasian mountains? Is there the hotel that lent its name to the unique Viennese world music band?

MUSIC | VARIOUS STYLES

The new, sixth album of HOTEL PALINDRONE is also a personal celebration - the ensemble celebrated its 25th birthday with the release in 2020. During this time, his dance-loving and boundlessly creative music took him to India, Mexico and the Malaysian rainforest.

.

A feast for the eyes as well as for the ears: Hardly any other local ensemble comes up with so many timbres and stylistic influences and at the same time passes the balancing act of possessing an immediately recognizable, elegant style. Wonderfully melodic and ironic-witty original compositions, chimes, astonishing solos on bagpipes or Jew's harp meet the blue-yodeler Jimmie Rodgers or dare to dance with Michael Praetorius...

In the 25 years of their band history, HOTEL PALINDRONE has become a pioneering band in the music scene.

.

As a new band member on acoustic guitar, Andi Neumeister brings a new, unexpected facet to the repertoire with a combination of country and western elements and his earthy voice.

Price: Free admission, everyone is welcome!
