Sebastian Gürtler
Traditionals from the Baltic States

The festival motto could not have appeared more aptly: French composer Inès Halimi sets poems by a Mexican nun to music, British sound creator Iain Bell puts Nahuatl poetry to music, and Austrian violinist Sebastian Gürtler transforms old Baltic folk songs into new works for string quartet. And of course the musicians come from all corners of the earth.
