W.i.t.Ch.


E. Zinner © 2005

A flight of fancy from the North Cape over the Alps to the Bosporus: W.i.t.Ch.'s powerful performance casts a spell with songs and tunes from all over Europe in a romantic and wild repertoire. Merry drinking songs, poetic love ballads and songs about the bawdy and gruesome fate of women throughout all ages are diligently arranged for four female voices. Their instrumental repertoire comprises lively traditional dance tunes and quiet, enchanting airs as well as original compositions by its members.

Music

  • W.i.t.Ch. have a diverse sound: wild romantic, fresh and modern at the same time and all roots in European traditional music. Mystic, easy-living and melancholic melodies are collected, mixed with original stuff and interpreted in a new way. This creates a genre that is best described with the term "European world music".
  • While in the beginning the repertoire was dominated by Irish, Scottish and French music, W.i.t.Ch. have visited almost all of Europe's regions in the meantime. Recently the traditional music of Eastern Europe has become a great inspiration.
  • The main pool of instruments fiddle, flute, guitar and percussion (bodhrán, darabuka, djembe) has grown considerably: various bagpipes, tin whistle, numerous percussion instruments, alto flute and piano accordion add new timbre to the typical W.i.t.Ch. sound.
  • Something that really makes W.i.t.Ch. stand out is their singing in parts and the number of languages they sing in: Meanwhile the witches sing in more than 10 languages and each of them has solo songs in the repertoire.
