Prvi koncert Festivala slovenskega jazza izven meja Slovenije.
The first concert of the Slovenian Jazz Showcase Festival outside the borders of Slovenia.

Rudi Katholnig (AUT) – harmonika / accordeon; Hans-Peter Steiner (AUT) – saksofon / saxophone

Zasedba, ki je nastala že daljnega leta 2011, redno koncertira po Evropi, kjer predstavlja svojo glasbo. Leta 2016 sta avtorja izdala zgoščenko z naslovom ‘First Inspiration’, tej pa vse bolj dodajata tudi nove skladbe albuma v nastajanju. Slogovno sta zelo neopredeljiva. Jazz se meša s tangom in glasbami sveta. na vprašanje o njunem slogu pa vedno odgovorita: “Ne moreva skrivati ali zanikati ničesar, kar sva doživela v življenju ali doživela na svoji glasbeni poti.” Posebna zvočna slika se odraža predvsem v njunih lastnih kompozicijah in bogatih improvizacijah. Koncert je organiziran v sodelovanju z Godbo na pihala Šmihel.

The band, which was formed way back in 2011, regularly performs concerts in Europe, where they present their music. In 2016, the authors have released a CD entitled ‘First Inspiration’, and they are increasingly adding to this as well new songs from the album in the making. Stylistically, they are very indefinable. Jazz mixes with tango and music worlds, and when asked about their style, they always answer: “We cannot hide or deny anything that we have experienced in life or experienced on our musical journey.” The special sound image is mainly reflected in their own compositions and rich improvisations. The concert is organized in cooperation with the Brass Band Šmihel.
