Winkler, Andreas, Winkler, Michael

EOS 234200-14

The two exceptional artists Andreas Winkler & Michael Winkler present their second album with Irish and Scottish ballads, as well as songs, jigs and reels. The second album is more intimate, more reflective and even more focused on the virtuoso interplay of guitar and voice. The two classically trained musicians take on the traditional songs with their very own perspective. Their unique arrangements transform these ancient folk songs of the British Isles into classical tunes at concert hall level. • Andreas Winkler is a passionate singer, stage director and singing teacher. As a lyrical tenor, he has appeared on many important stages worldwide, such as Zurich, Munich, Tokyo, London or Cleveland. Collaborations with the greats of his industry, such as Jonas Kaufmann, Nikolaus Harnoncourt or Cecilia Bartoli, formed him as an artist. • Michael Winkler is a successful concert guitarist, who completed his music studies with the soloist diploma. He is making a name for himself as an interpreter of Bach's works and his own compositions for guitar. He is a member of the internationally renowned Eos Guitar Quartet, which has existed since 1985 and is one of the most prominent ensembles of its kind in the world.
