Citoller Tanz­geiger

Ensemble

When the yodellers echo through the valley at the Styriarte and the folk dances bounce on the floor, the legendary Citoller are not far away. Nobody combines the hearty with the gallant, the wild with the tender more easily than the famous Härtel family music from the Übelbach valley north of Graz.

Trio Raiz de Lis

Trio

With cello, accordion and vocals, the trio takes you on a journey through the colourful rhythms of Brazil and the passionate sounds of the tango. The trio rounds off their repertoire with swing, pop and Schlager and thus always offers their audience excitement and entertainment.

Manuela Kerer

Composer

With her compositions, the native South Tyrolean has already attracted international attention. But it is not only music that she is passionate about, in addition to her studies in composition and violin, she also completed her studies in law and psychology.

Thomas Höft

Dramatic adviser

Seit 1994 prägen seine Ideen und Erzählungen das Antlitz und die DNA des Hauses Styriarte entscheidend mit. Neben der Dramaturgie, in der sein unkonventioneller Expertensinn für Musikgeschichte(n) immer neue Überraschungen aufspürt, ist der 1961 geborene Niedersachse auch Autor und Regisseur mit europaweitem Wirkungskreis.

Ekaterina Protsenko

Soprano

The Russian-born soprano studied voice as well as lied, oratorio and concert at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna. The award-winning singer celebrated a major personal success in Gerd Kühr's opera "Stallerhof" at the Neue Oper Wien in 2022.

Annette Schönmüller

mezzo-sopran0

The mezzo-soprano Annette Schönmüller is an internationally sought-after vocal soloist who works primarily in contemporary music theatre.

Styrian Brass

Blechbläser Quintett

From classical hits and jazz standards to original compositions – the five brass players present everything in their own entertaining way and give humorous insights into the life of a musician during their self-moderated concerts.

The “Styrian oak“

The “Styrian oak“ was born in Thal and rose to become a celebrity worldwide, first as a body builder and later as a Hollywood star in his unforgettable superhero roles. On the screen he saved the world time and again, only to then actually turn to solving real problems in his third career as a politician. Early on he took a stance against climate change, and when the Russians invaded Ukraine, Arnold Schwarzenegger posted a much admired speech about true heroism. Reason enough to celebrate him in his home town.
