Schmelz by Christian Zehnder Quartett

Vocalist, voice artist, yodeler or throat singer? Swiss musician Christian Zehnder is all of these, but this idiosyncratic performer in all his dazzling variety defies categorization. Archaic, urban and spheric his sound-world dishevels Swiss idioms through storms and chinooks, with critical clear views of the higher reaches of the Alps lost in reverie. For the first time he melts his non-verbal vocal artistry with lyrics in german and french and defines his very own imaginative alpine music between past and future on "Schmelz".
