Die Österreichischen Salonisten

Andrej Serkov, Bandoneon
Peter Gillmayr, Violine
Guntram Zauner, Gitarre
Markus Kraler, Kontrabass
Wieland Nordmeyer, Klavier

The multitalented musicians from all over Austria, all music-teachers, chamber and orchestra musicians, dedicate themselves with the ensemble to the so called salon music, which you could listen to in former exquisite European cafes and salons. Sentimental tangos and milongas, impassionate czardas and paso dobles, racy polkas, swinging waltzes, filmmusic, Latin jazz standards, opera-medleys, and operetta melodies transfer the audience into the world of the twenties and thirties.

Creativity, virtuosity and amusing presentation bring new life into the nearly forgotten genre with the typical Austrian charming manner.
