Musicbanda Franui / Habjan / Boesch

Exuberance in love, pipe dreams, sorrow and despair: in Franz Schubert's »Die schöne Müllerin«, the travelling journeyman experiences a wide variety of emotional states. The miller's wife does not reciprocate his feelings, he chooses the rushing brook as his dialogue partner. The cross-border Tyrolean Musicbanda Franui dedicates itself to the song cycle in a very special way: Florian Boesch, nominated for a Grammy with his recording of »Die schöne Müllerin«, sings, accompanied by the instruments of the Musicbanda Franui, which range from the tuba to the dulcimer and accordion to the harp. The third member of the group is director and puppeteer Nikolaus Habjan. With the help of his life-size puppets, he recreates the 200-year-old and yet always contemporary story of unfulfilled love. A special evening of song, folk music and puppetry!
