Diverse repertoire and special topics

Particularly noteworthy is the concert on Sunday, May 1st, where “Trombone Attraction” performed under the title “Ode to cheekiness”. This concert addressed positive sass and intellectual independence. Works by well-known composers such as Ludwig van Beethoven, Leonard Bernstein, Giovanni Gabrieli and Astor Piazzolla were presented. Daniel Muck also found his place in the repertoire.

The members of the ensemble play different trombones: Stefan Obmann plays the tenor trombone, Christian Poitinger plays the bass trombone, Martin Riener plays the tenor and alto trombone, and Raphael Stieger also plays a tenor trombone. The event in May was another highlight in the career of the quartet, which always impresses with original programs.
