Engadine melodies: Kapelle Nogler

From old Engadine dances to the present day: contemporary folk music with three strings and small clarinet!

Based on a photo of the Engadine band Johannes Nogler taken in Scuol in 1913, the newly founded Kapelle Nogler revives the old melodies of Johannes (1860-1938) and his father Rudolf Nogler (1829-1888) from Ardez. The original sound with three strings and a small clarinet will be heard, as well as all the musical developments that have taken place since then. Three of today's musicians are members of the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich, Clarigna Küng is one of the most accomplished violinists from Appenzell. So the journey also takes them to the Alpstein, where the band mixes up traditional Appenzell string music with clarinet and Clarigna's new arrangements. Contemporary folk music is also featured, for example with Ueli Mooser's "Malojawind" or "La sera sper il lag" by Gion Balzer Casanova from Surselva.
