Simone Kopmajer & Band – "HOPE"

"Maxjoseph," a band operating democratically with a royal name, merges elements of folk music, classical, and jazz into a wonderfully unique sound.

The lightest is the hardest – violin, Styrian harmonica, guitar, and tuba – four virtuoso musicians weave a dynamic, chamber-music texture that blossoms with an elegance and lightness one would not expect in connection with folk music.

In the improvisations, jazz shimmers, in the flawless interplay the classical training, and in the diverse allusions the wide horizon of four global citizens who are simultaneously deeply rooted in their homeland. This music refuses any simple classification and creates a delightful auditory confusion.

Maxjoseph's music is not just a synthesis of high and low art, of old and new, of folk music and classical – it is an invitation to a dialogue where boundaries blur, yet one remains grounded, rooted in the homeland. "NAU" is the current album and program of the ensemble – music that has been missed not only in Bavaria but far beyond: light-footed, charming, and with extraordinary, fresh ideas that break clichés and interpret folk music in a completely new way.

Maxjoseph members are:

Georg Unterholzner - guitar 
Andreas Winkler - Styrian harmonica 
Nathanael Turban - violin 
Florian Mayrhofer - tuba
