Christoph Stiefel & Lisette Spinnler

Inspired Song, Singing Piano

A singer and a pianist: Lisette Spinnler and Christoph Stiefel create something special out of this rare combination, something magical. One doesn’t only prick up one’s ears to the unusual selection of pieces, but also listens to the nearly inexhaustible richness of fascinating sounds. During all of this, neither the song nor the piano, in part prepared, stands in the foreground; much more both meld into harmonious unity. When art succeeds in celebrating beauty without artificiality, but rather transcends it, it can give us an impression of a lost paradise. Since such transcendent moments appear in the soulful music of Christoph Stiefel and Lisette Spinnler again and again, this music touches us in middle of our hearts.
