The concert series Andermatt Folk presents: Simone Felbers IHEIMISCH

Description

Simone Felbers iheimisch is a main and heartfelt project of one of the most prominent and controversial voices of the new Swiss folk music. Together with the renowned instrumentalists Rafael Jerjen (double bass), Polina Niederhäuser (cello), and Adrian Würsch (Schwyzerörgeli), the yodeler, songwriter, and choir director Simone Felber (among others hedi drescht and Echo vom Eierstock) explores the potentials of New Folk with iheimisch.

With the new production Totätanz, the ensemble addresses a universal but taboo topic: one's own mortality. iheimisch treats the dark theme with lightness and composes sophisticated contemporary folk music about dying and our way of dealing with it. Twelve dance songs were created that question Swiss death and mourning culture and are comforting and timelessly beautiful precisely because of their positivity.
