Elisabeth Sulser & Band

It was their curiosity and love to experiment, their delight to break down the boundaries between old and traditional folk music, and their desire to create new and consistent sound characteristics that led to the formation of the ensemble «Elisabeth Sulser & Band». Since its first CD «Rendez-vous» (2008) the trio consisting of Elisabeth Sulser (flutes, bagpipe, horn), Felix Haller (accordion, guitar, vocals) and David Aebli (bass, mandolin, bouzouki) intensely explore the folk music of different countries. During their concerts and performances they keep on rearranging traditional sounds and melodies out of the international folklore.
