Hals
The unaffected and touching performance of the four women of HALS is characterized by their natural expressiveness and directness, which defies the a cappella perfection mainstream. They aren't afraid to take risks. From their original compositions, they plunge into collective improvisations with pinpoint accuracy. Inspired by this creative daring and the energy of the audience, their music unfolds a new access with each performance.

Alpha Triangoli
Motivated by the curiosity of the four musicians to let themselves fall and be carried away, the band sounds sometimes earthy and energetic - as if approaching a planet - sometimes calm, floating, wondering. At the same time, the interplay of the Vienna-based quartet gives the impression that it is a micro-cosmos itself. For while the destinations of the quartet's journey lie in the unknown, the necessary direction of our everyday activity has long been known.

Mel*E
Three strong, unmistakable voices in jazz - Mel*E combines virtuoso interplay with innovative sound research. Their sound fuses acoustic and electronic elements to create hypnotic, driving music that sets the mind and body in motion. Wide melodic arcs float over energetic grooves, danceable rhythms meet spherical soundscapes - Mel*E plays with contrasts and combines the virtuoso with the immediate, the analog with the digital. Powerful and sensitive, rousing and introspective - always with depth and urgency.
