Sinfonietta St Gallen

We had the pleasure to host Sinfonietta St Gallen during our Tandem project. Their founder Elena Neff Zhunke created an amazing program with her ensemble Sinfonietta St Gallen that consists of professional musicians - some of them local Swiss residents - some of them refugees who had to leave their home country due to the ongoing war in Ukraine.

In this portrait by Maryna Lopushin you can hear and see them speaking about their motivation for this project and watch them working on the concert preparations. https://youtu.be/G87PVG3o3VY

Sinfonietta ST Gallen introduces us to the music of Ukrainian composer Victoria Vita Poleva . You will immediately discover the deep beauty and bittersweet tenderness of her music when you listen to this version of her composition "The Soul" - soul food it is. https://youtu.be/Qc-Ooo-Sodk

Miroslav Skoryk has composed a quartet called dyptych https://youtu.be/CKSQDdN7k4A - here we can enjoy it in an extended version with string quartet and double-bass. It is amazing how this music elegantly changes between different genres and how smoothly Sinfonietta St Gallen projects these colors into the audible spheres.
