Description:
As well known and hip as some of our train songs are, Darol Anger, Thomas Mandel, Michael Radanovics und Gernot Wolfgang, the arrangers of this music, lift them clever onto an artistic level. The musicians have mastered the splits between virtuoso classical performance and the rough tone of the ballad singers.
Biography:
The Spring String Quartet - four young men from Austria - meet already during their studies and perform since 1997 under this name. It is the only Austrian string quartet that can fiddle, dance and sing, capture the groove of the most offbeat rhythm combinations and finely counterbalance the most exact harmonies.
