Duo Albin Brun & Kristina Brunner

Duo Albin Brun & Kristina Brunner

The duo of Albin Brun and Kristina Brunner consists of the saxophonist/schwyzerörgeli player Albin Brun, and the cello/schwyzerörgeli player Kristina Brunner. Brun has immense experience – the prizes he has won include the 2017 Swiss Music Prize – and he has given concerts in 25 countries. Brunner is an exceptional young musician who has made a name for herself far and wide with her virtuoso playing. Brun was born in Lucerne in 1959 and lives there today. Since beginning as a folk and street musician, he has become regarded as a key figure on the scene that straddles jazz and contemporary folk music. Kristina Brunner studied the cello with Markus Flückiger at the Lucerne School of Music, focusing on folk music and schwyzerörgeli. She maintains an active concert schedule, especially in her duo with Albin Brun, but also with her sister Evelyn Brunner. Evelyn studied the pedagogy of music and movement and is active in various projects and bands on the folk-music scene.
